Secret Warriors #23

Jonathan Hickman's "Rebirth" arc continues in this 2011 Marvel series, with a Paul Renaud cover that splits two very different worlds across a single striking image. In the foreground, a young man in a sweeping red coat strides through a warm, palm-tree-lined setting, while behind him a mustachioed figure in tactical gear raises a rifle amid a frigid, militarized landscape filled with helicopters and a fortified structure. The visual tension between those two contrasting environments — sun-drenched intrigue versus cold-weather warfare — makes this a compelling snapshot of the globe-spanning stakes Alessandro Vitti brings to life inside.
