Runaways #15

A blue-haired figure crackles with electrical energy in the foreground, his expression fierce and strained, while a massive, ominous red-and-black symbol looms over him like a shadow he can't escape — it's a striking image that immediately signals high stakes in "Parental Guidance, Chapter Two." Marcos Martín's cover work is bold and graphic, using a stark limited palette to dramatic effect. Brian K. Vaughan, Adrian Alphona, and the rest of the creative team were clearly firing on all cylinders with this 2006 chapter of Marvel's beloved teen series.
