Seven Secrets #9

A determined young fighter grips a blade and stares down whatever threat looms above — and looming it certainly is, a massive fanged creature with glowing purple eyes dominating the upper half of the cover, chains trailing ominously on either side. Shadowy figures flank the edges, and the deep red atmosphere gives the whole composition a sense of cornered-but-defiant tension that Tom Taylor's writing and Daniele Di Nicuolo's cover art carry off beautifully. Seven Secrets #9 from BOOM! Studios looks to push its protagonist right to the edge — a striking visual promise for readers following this 2021 series.
