Mister Miracle #6

Issue six of Tom King and Mitch Gerads' celebrated twelve-part series finds Scott Free — Mister Miracle himself — locked in fierce, energy-streaked combat, his red-and-green costume a blur of motion as he squares off against the formidable Big Barda, her golden helmet and crimson cape commanding the upper half of the image. Nick Derington's cover crackles with kinetic tension, the two New Gods rendered in bold, dynamic lines that feel both modern and rooted in Kirby's Fourth World legacy. With Brian Michael Bendis's cover quote calling this series the standout book of its year, this installment arrives with serious momentum behind it.
