Red Hood and the Outlaws #5

Part of DC's 2012 New 52 initiative, this fifth issue of Red Hood and the Outlaws presents a gripping frozen-wilderness scene by Kenneth Rocafort (with colors by Blond): a red-suited figure cradles a wounded Starfire on a blood-soaked icy ground, while a massive yellow-green dragon looms overhead with wings spread wide. Scott Lobdell's story — titled "I'm Free as a Bird-- --And This Bird You Cannot Kill!" — promises high stakes for the team, and Rocafort's cover composition, stark white landscape contrasting with vivid splashes of crimson and the reptilian predator above, makes the danger feel genuinely immediate.
