Red Skull #1

Set against Battleworld's blood-red skies, Riley Rossmo's cover for this 2015 Secret Wars tie-in is genuinely striking — a massive crimson skull looms over a group of determined heroes marching forward, including a flaming-skulled figure, a woman in blue, a blonde in white, and others silhouetted against waves of shadowy pursuers. Writer Joshua Williamson and artist Luca Pizzari kick off "Part One: Hunters," promising exactly the kind of dangerous chase through Battleworld's uncharted territories that the title suggests. If you're looking for a corner of Secret Wars with real menace baked right into its imagery, this opener makes a strong case for itself.
