Starman #44

Part three of "Star Shadows" brings the chaos to a boil as Lobo dominates this Mike Mignola cover, perched triumphantly atop a massive skull-shaped asteroid while a battered Starman tumbles through the debris-strewn void below — with another hero drifting helplessly in the foreground and a third figure flying in at left. Mignola's bold linework and fiery orange sky make the Main Man's menace feel genuinely overwhelming, setting a dramatic tone for Len Strazewski's story brought to life inside by John Calimee and Roy Richardson. If you've been following this arc, issue #44 promises the kind of cosmic confrontation that made early-'90s DC so entertaining.
