Savage Dragon #19

Savage Dragon #19 plunges headlong into mid-air mayhem with this striking April 1995 Image cover by Erik Larsen, showing the green-skinned Dragon locked in a fierce mid-air grapple with a large purple tentacled creature, both tumbling toward a glowing, hazy ground far below. The dynamic perspective — looking down past the two combatants into that eerie golden void — gives the whole image a real sense of freefall danger. "The Boneyard Blitz" promises the kind of no-holds-barred action that made Larsen's creator-owned series a standout of the era.
