Miracleman #10

Rick Veitch's cover for this 2014 Marvel reprint captures a striking duality: a crouching, plainclothes figure gazes upward in awe or dread at a towering, gold-suited powerhouse wreathed in dark, churning flames — the contrast between the ordinary and the extraordinary rendered with real tension. The golden figure's "KM"-emblazoned costume and snarling expression suggest barely contained menace looming over the vulnerable man below. With "Mindgames" as the story title and a Mature Content advisory firmly in place, Miracleman #10 promises the kind of psychologically charged, no-punches-pulled storytelling this series is known for.
