Origin II #2

Kieron Gillen and Adam Kubert's Origin II continues with this unsettling second issue, whose cover by Adam Kubert pulls you uncomfortably close to a massive, feral creature — its blood-streaked teeth bared in a savage grin, pale hair framing a face that radiates feral menace. Hanging below that fearsome maw is what appears to be a small, limp figure or charm bound with cord and feathers, a quietly haunting detail that hints at the dark wilderness territory this series inhabits. Frank Martin's muted, earthy coloring gives the whole image a raw, visceral texture that makes this 2014 Marvel series feel genuinely untamed.
