New Gods #12

Part six of "The Bloodline Saga" arrives in January 1990 with a cover that practically vibrates with cosmic fury — a massive, stone-faced Darkseid locks fists with a helmeted warrior in red and blue, their clash towering above a sprawling battlefield packed with mounted soldiers, armored fighters, and a colorful cast of combatants surging through the explosion below. Paris Cullins and Willie Blyberg deliver a composition that makes excellent use of scale, contrasting the titanic struggle up top with the chaotic ground-level melee beneath. If you've been following this multi-part saga, this cover promises the confrontation has finally reached its peak.
