In "Et si c'était l'Araignée ?", writer Mary Jo Duffy and artist Bret Blevins spin a tale of fractured destiny in the kingdom of Crystallium, where a prophecy from Zardeth splits the brothers Crystar and Moltar—and transforms them into warriors of crystal and lava, respectively. With inks by Vince Colletta and colors by Andy Yanchus, the story unfolds as their followers are remade in their image, setting the stage for a clash that will shape the realm’s fate. The cover, a striking piece by Jean-Yves Mitton, captures the moment the kingdom’s balance shatters.
