The New Warriors #70

Part three of the "Future Shock" arc lands in April 1996, and the cover by Patrick Zircher and Andrew Pepoy makes a strong case for the stakes involved — a massive armored figure grips Spider-Man by the head while a flame-engulfed woman struggles in the chaos below, all set against a backdrop of fire and destruction. The New Warriors are clearly in serious trouble, with bodies scattered across the rubble and that imposing mechanized villain dominating the scene. If Evan Skolnick's "Time Will Tell" delivers even half the intensity promised on this cover, fans of the team are in for a tense ride.
