Over the Edge #8

Daredevil takes center stage on this 1996 Marvel cover, where the Man Without Fear and a red-clad female warrior — surrounded by sword-wielding ninja assailants — clash across a city fire escape in a beautifully composed, kinetic tableau by penciler Aron Wiesenfeld and inker Mark Buckingham. The dynamic composition stretches from rooftop to street level, with black-clad combatants closing in from every angle, giving the whole scene a breathless, cornered-against-the-odds energy. At just 99 cents, Over the Edge #8 brings writer Adam Vega's story "Last Boat" wrapped in cover art that makes the most of its urban nighttime setting.
