New Avengers #12

A massive, stone-skinned figure spreads his arms wide in a pose of raw, earth-shaking power, framed against a stark white background and rocky terrain on Mike Deodato Jr.'s striking cover for this Infinity tie-in. Jonathan Hickman's run on New Avengers has been building toward moments like this, and issue #12's "Epilogue [Infinity]" promises the kind of weighty fallout that follows a universe-spanning event. With Deodato's muscular linework and Frank Martin's warm, burnished coloring, this is a visually commanding chapter in one of Marvel's most ambitious 2014 storylines.
