Robin #142

Robin himself dominates this November 2005 cover, arms outstretched in a dramatic free-fall as he plunges toward a desert landscape below, with armed figures parachuting from a dark aircraft behind him and a large spherical device floating ominously nearby. The tagline "Goes to War!" sets a bold, high-stakes tone that hints at Robin operating well outside Gotham's familiar rooftops. Cover art by Scott McDaniel and Andy Owens gives the composition real kinetic energy, making issue #142 a genuinely compelling entry in Bill Willingham's run on the series.
