Secret Warriors #6

Tied into Marvel's 2009 Dark Reign crossover, this sixth chapter of "Nick Fury: Agent of Nothing" brings together Bendis and Hickman's writing with interior art by Stefano Caselli and colors by Daniele Rudoni. Jim Cheung's cover artwork assembles a striking tableau — a gold-helmeted warrior wielding a pistol at center, flanked by a diverse team of fighters including a red-haired brawler, a green-costumed figure, and a dark-clad young woman, all looming beneath the imposing close-up of a bald, aged figure whose cold gaze dominates the composition. It's a confident, character-packed image that captures the tension of a ragtag team operating in the shadows of a Marvel Universe under very dangerous new management.
