Project Superpowers: Blackcross #4

Standing tall with a rapier raised and his dramatic red-lined black cape sweeping behind him, the skull-and-crossbones-emblazoned hero of Project Superpowers: Blackcross cuts a striking, almost theatrical figure on this Tula Lotay cover. There's a quiet confidence to the masked figure's pose — one hand on his hip, sword aloft — that feels every bit as pulpy and atmospheric as Warren Ellis and Colton Worley's 2015 Dynamite series deserves. Issue four keeps the mood moody and the imagery sharp.
