Red Lanterns #27

The cover tagline says it all — "Hot-Blooded Meets Cold-Hearted!" — as a red-suited Red Lantern clashes head-on with a white-haired, ice-blue-clad figure in a burst of shattering ice and crimson flame. Alessandro Vitti's cover art crackles with kinetic energy, putting the elemental contrast between rage-fueled red and cool, precise cold front and center. Charles Soule's "Hot and Cold" looks like a genuinely satisfying collision of opposites, and this 2014 New 52 entry makes a strong case for Red Lanterns as one of DC's more inventive corners of the emotional spectrum.
