Minor Arcana #3

Jeff Lemire's watercolor-tinged cover for Minor Arcana #3 is a quietly unsettling image: a wide-eyed, dark-haired figure holds out a crystal ball in which a distressed woman appears to be caught mid-scream, buffeted by wind or some unseen force. The contrast between the stillness of the figure gazing at the orb and the chaos visible within it gives the whole composition an eerie, foreboding pull. With Lemire handling every creative role from writing to line art to color, "The Fool: Part Three" feels like a deeply personal vision unfolding one haunting chapter at a time.
