The Spectre #29

John Ostrander and Tom Mandrake's acclaimed run on DC's supernatural avenger reaches its twenty-ninth issue with a cover that simply demands attention — Joe DeVito paints the Spectre bearing down with fierce intensity atop a roaring Tyrannosaurus rex, the pair erupting from a churning inferno that engulfs an entire city skyline below. The sheer scale of that fiery tableau, all hellish reds and explosive golds, captures perfectly the cosmic, almost wrathful energy this series brought to DC's 1995 lineup. "Desecration, Part III" promises the kind of high-stakes supernatural drama that made this run a standout chapter in the character's history.
