Savage Dragon #66

The green-skinned Savage Dragon scrambles toward the edge of a checkerboard precipice while a large, winged red figure looms close behind — and an enormous crowd of bizarre villains and super-beings presses forward in the background, making this cover feel like a genuine showdown with impossible odds. Erik Larsen's pencils and inks pack the scene with wild visual energy, filling every corner with characters that hint at the anything-goes storytelling Savage Dragon had built its reputation on by 1999. With a story title like "Savage Dragonbert and Hitler's Brainbert," issue #66 promises the kind of gleefully offbeat humor that sets this series apart from the rest of Image's lineup.
