Nightstalkers #18

Marvel's Midnight Sons line goes out swinging with this April 1994 finale, and the cover by Douglas Wheatley and Frank Turner makes no bones about the stakes — a snarling, monstrous creature lunges forward in a burst of explosive fire while a desperate gunman beneath it opens fire at point-blank range. The bold cover copy — "Death Stalks the Nightstalkers: This Ain't Called the Final Issue for Nothing!" — sets the tone perfectly for what promises to be an intense conclusion to the series.
