Spider-Man 2099 #12

Francesco Mattina's cover for this 2015 Marvel series delivers a striking image of Spider-Man 2099 — in his distinctive dark blue and red suit — pinned down and overwhelmed by a winged, armored antagonist with a purple mohawk and insectoid wings spread wide. The composition is tense and visceral, with the hero clearly at a dangerous disadvantage against this formidable-looking foe. Peter David's writing paired with Will Sliney's interior art and Antonio Fabela's colors makes this a compelling chapter in Miguel O'Hara's ongoing adventures in a present-day Marvel Universe.
