Sinestro #12

This August 2015 issue delivers one of the more striking covers of the series — Sinestro rendered in shadow and deep crimson, his yellow-and-black uniform bearing the Sinestro Corps symbol as he stands hunched, head bowed, against a swirling red backdrop that feels equal parts defiance and exhaustion. The mood is quietly intense, suggesting a character wrestling with burdens that go well beyond ordinary villainy, which fits neatly with the story title "Daddy Issues." With Cullen Bunn scripting and Brad Walker on interior art, this is a compelling chapter in DC's New 52-era series dedicated to one of comics' most compelling anti-heroes.
