Teen Titans #57

A fierce armored figure dominates this May 2008 cover, sword raised and expression locked in fierce determination as an explosion flares behind her — all set against a crumbling brick backdrop that crackles with tension. The bold "Beware the Terror Titans" tagline makes clear that the Teen Titans are facing a serious new threat in "Home Invasion," and the cover by Eddy Barrows and Júlio Ferreira does a fine job of selling the danger. Sean McKeever's run on the title continued to push these young heroes into genuinely perilous territory, and this issue looks like no exception.
