The Mutant Misadventures of Cloak and Dagger #11

The cover of this April 1990 issue sets up a nicely tense split scenario, with Cloak's dark, winged form looming overhead as he reaches toward figures identified as Brigid and Rusty, while below, Dagger — radiating her signature light energy — squares off alone against the threatening Marked Man, who has her by the throat amid a swirl of glowing rings. Jackson Guice's cover linework captures both the eerie menace of Cloak's darkness and the fierce determination of Dagger holding her own in a fight she wasn't supposed to face solo. Terry Austin and Mike Vosburg deliver what looks to be a satisfying double-threat story that plays to everything that makes this duo compelling — the push and pull of light and dark, together and apart.
