The Last God #5

Chapter Five of The Last God: Book I of the Fellspyre Chronicles arrives with a cover that crackles with desperate, raw energy — a grey-skinned, pointed-eared warrior in battered armor lunges forward through a crumbling stone chamber, chains hanging in the shadows around him, his face twisted in a snarl of fury or anguish. Kai Carpenter's painted cover work gives the scene a brooding, painterly atmosphere that feels rooted in classic dark fantasy, all amber firelight and cold shadow pressing in from every side. Phillip Kennedy Johnson and Riccardo Federici's DC Black Label saga continues to look like one of 2020's most compelling forays into original high-fantasy comics storytelling.
