Shattered Image #2

A sprawling assembly of Image Comics heroes and villains packs every inch of this cover — dozens of masked, armored, and street-level characters standing shoulder to shoulder in a tense, wall-to-wall lineup that practically bursts off the page. Cover pencils by Ryan Benjamin and inks by Travis Charest give the massive ensemble a sharp, dynamic energy that feels like the whole Image universe is holding its breath. With Kurt Busiek and Barbara Kesel steering the story, this 1996 crossover series promises the kind of ambitious, character-rich drama that only a gathering of this scale can deliver.
