Silk #16

Silk stands cool and composed at center, adjusting her mask as a crowd of snarling, grotesque oni-like creatures looms behind her — an unsettling backdrop that makes her calm defiance all the more striking. This issue ties into Marvel's Clone Conspiracy event, promising that Cindy Moon's corner of the Spider-verse isn't untouched by that storyline's mounting tensions. With cover art by Helen Chen and interiors by Robbie Thompson and Irene Strychalski, this 2017 chapter delivers a strong visual statement about a hero who holds her ground no matter what's closing in.
