StormWatch #7

Warren Ellis, Bryan Hitch, and Paul Neary were already redefining what StormWatch could be by 1998, and this cover — penciled by Hitch and inked by Neary — captures that energy beautifully. A lone figure in a pale suit, gripping a walking cane, crouches at the bottom of the image while an overwhelming mass of writhing alien creatures spirals outward behind him, filling the frame with organic menace. It's a striking visual setup for "Bleed 1 of 3," promising a story that pits one determined individual against something genuinely vast and strange.
