The Night Force #11

A new saga dawns for DC's supernatural thriller series with this June 1983 issue, heralded by the cover banner "Beginning: A New Saga in the Lives of the… Night Force." Gene Colan and Bob Smith's cover is genuinely unsettling — a massive, looming shadow figure with glowing eyes and a skull emblem dominates the background, its dark presence engulfing a cloaked man and a wide-eyed red-haired woman clutching what appears to be a book or card, the two of them caught in a shaft of eerie light. It's a masterclass in atmospheric dread, perfectly suited to a series built around mystery and the occult.
