Starfire #5

Starfire takes an underwater dive in this December 2015 installment, and Amanda Conner's cover captures her flame-haired, starbolt-glowing presence surrounded by a vivid menagerie — a curious dolphin, a giant octopus, a prowling shark, a sea turtle, and a rainbow of tropical fish all sharing the same luminous blue waters. The title "Trouble from Every Direction" feels perfectly fitting when you're ringed by creatures great and small beneath the waves. With Conner and Palmiotti writing and Emanuela Lupacchino on interior art, this series continues to balance warmth and wonder in a way that's hard to resist.
