Starfire #9

Conner's cover for Starfire #9 (April 2016) is a cheerful, chaotic delight — Starfire floats at the center of a glowing bubble, hair blazing with golden fire, flanked by two dark-haired companions amid a swirling assortment of food, wine, and wonderfully strange creatures including worms, crustaceans, centipedes, and a snail. The playful energy captures exactly the warm, character-driven charm this series is known for, with colorist Hi-Fi giving everything a vibrant, inviting glow. With Conner and Palmiotti writing and Elsa Charretier on interior art, "Approaching the Abyss" promises that same lively mix of heart and adventure.
