Primal Force #1

DC's 1994 launch of Primal Force announces itself with the tagline "Journey to the Dark Corners…" — and this cover by Ken Hooper delivers on that promise with four distinct heroes poised against a crumbling, smoke-filled landscape. A sword-wielding dark-haired warrior charges forward in the foreground alongside a dark-clad woman in distress, while a massive stone-skinned bruiser looms behind them and a sleek red figure leaps through the air above. Writer Steven T. Seagle and artist Ken Hooper set a tone that's equal parts mystic threat and raw action, making this first issue a genuinely intriguing entry point into one of DC's more unconventional team books.
