Starman #19

From the creative team of Stern, Lyle, and Hanna comes Starman #19 (February 1990), titled "Heavy Artillery!" — and that title is on full display in Tom Lyle's dynamic cover. Starman, in his bold yellow-and-purple costume, is caught mid-strike, wielding a rod against a massive, hulking figure encased in a formidable suit of powered armor whose sheer size dominates the foreground. The contrast between Starman's agile, airborne attack and the armored behemoth's brute presence makes for a genuinely compelling image that sets the stage for what promises to be a hard-hitting confrontation.
