Shadowpact #25

The Shadowpact faces its defining moment in this 2008 DC Comics finale, with the cover by Tom Derenick and Wayne Faucher depicting the full team — a blue-skinned horned powerhouse charging forward, a dark-haired sorceress, a caped simian, a winged figure soaring overhead, and a cloaked mystic — surging together against the looming jaws and crimson wings of a monstrous creature. The tagline "The Pact's Last Stand!" sets the stakes as writer Matthew Sturges and artist Phil Winslade bring the three-part "Burning Age" arc to its conclusion. It's a satisfying ensemble cover that captures the team's spirit of defiant solidarity against overwhelming supernatural odds.
