The Phantom Stranger #7

The cover of this 2013 New 52 entry pulls you in immediately: the Phantom Stranger looms in close-up, hat pulled low and face stricken with anguish, while a bloodied dagger is thrust toward him and ghostly images in the window behind him hint at violence and struggle. The burning question splashed across the bottom — "Who Has Betrayed the Stranger?" — sets a mood of treachery perfectly matched by the tight, dramatic cover work from Gene Ha and Zander Cannon. With Dan DiDio and J. M. DeMatteis at the helm on a story titled "Breach of Faith," this issue promises a dark, spiritually charged chapter for one of DC's most mysterious figures.
