Stormwatch #46

A red-haired warrior woman stands defiantly at the center of this 1997 Image cover, armed with both a rifle and a sword, flames and a field of skulls smoldering at her feet. Looming behind her is a massive, stern face rendered in cold grays, while flanking figures — a shaved-head man, a bald powerhouse, and a suited couple — watch from the shadows. With Warren Ellis writing and Tom Raney and Randy Elliott handling the cover art, this chapter of Stormwatch carries a real sense of tension and dangerous stakes.
