Scarlet Witch #5

Scarlet Witch #5 from Marvel's 2023 series puts Wanda front and center in a fierce, up-close struggle against a golden-armored, winged warrior, both of them battered and snarling as massive dark chains sweep dramatically around them. Russell Dauterman's cover art crackles with energy — Matthew Wilson's fiery orange-and-crimson palette perfectly amplifying the raw intensity of the clash. Steve Orlando's run continues to find compelling adversaries worthy of Wanda's power, and this issue's cover makes a strong case that the stakes have never felt more visceral.
