The Demon #10

A wall of hellfire engulfs the cover as a screaming figure in a long coat is hurled backward through the flames, while a red-tinged, crouching figure looms in the foreground — Val Semeiks and Denis Rodier delivering raw, kinetic menace in shades of orange and shadow. Alan Grant's story, subtitled "Secret Origins," promises the kind of infernal revelations that make The Demon such a compelling corner of the 1991 DC universe. If you like your supernatural comics with genuine teeth and a sense of dread, this issue wears that mood on every inch of its cover.
