Sea of Stars #9

The cover of Sea of Stars #9 pulls you in with a sweeping, dreamlike composition — a lone armored figure stands atop a massive dark creature, surrounded by a swirl of alien beasts rendered in deep purples and blues, while ghostly face portraits loom large in the background. Stephen Green's artwork has a painterly, almost otherworldly quality, and Rico Renzi's cool, atmospheric palette gives the whole image a sense of vast, cosmic scale. Written by Jason Aaron and Dennis Hallum, this 2021 Image series continues to look like one of the most visually distinctive science-fiction adventures on the shelves.
