Rorschach #12

The finale of Tom King, Jorge Fornés, and Dave Stewart's twelve-issue DC Black Label series arrives with a cover as atmospheric as anything that came before it — a solitary silhouette stands before a pair of grand double doors thrown open to a blazing column of golden light, their dark panels reflecting ambiguous, Rorschach-blot shapes on either side. Fornés's stark contrast between the consuming black and that luminous yellow gives the image a quiet, almost ceremonial weight, perfectly suited to a closing chapter. If you've been following this noir-drenched story, this twelfth issue is the one you've been waiting for.
