The Huntress #6

Issue six of DC's 1989 solo series finds the Huntress in a desperate, close-quarters moment — she's flat on her back, mask in place and crossbow bolt at the ready, staring down the barrel of a smoking machine gun held by an unseen assailant. Joe Staton and Bob Smith frame the scene with real urgency against a vivid red background, the tension crackling off the page. "The Silence Is Broken" promises that whatever she's been building toward in this series is about to come to a head.
