“The Dragon's Hoard, Part I: Dead Earnest”

The Dragon's Hoard kicks off in style with this May 1991 opener, and the cover by Geof Isherwood and Karl Kesel sets an immediately tense mood: a green serpentine dragon coils around a figure in purple leveling a revolver, while a sword-wielding woman in yellow and red stands ready for battle and a suited man reacts with alarm amid a backdrop of fire. With John Ostrander and Kim Yale at the helm alongside artist Geof Isherwood and inker Robert Campanella, this first chapter of the multi-part "Dragon's Hoard" storyline promises the kind of globe-trotting, morally complicated action the series delivered so reliably. A great entry point into one of DC's most underrated team books of the era.
