NewMen #10

Part 5 of the eight-part "Extreme Sacrifice" crossover event, this January 1995 Image title drops readers into the thick of a brutal, blood-soaked battlefield. The cover, penciled by Todd Nauck and inked by Danny Miki, puts two armored figures front and center — a masked, blue-haired warrior and a silver-suited hero with a gem on his forehead — both splattered with blood and standing over fallen, snarling figures while teammates battle in the chaotic background. With writing from Rob Liefeld and Eric Stephenson backing up this visceral cover, NewMen #10 captures the raw, high-stakes energy that defined mid-90s Image comics at full throttle.
