“The Mystery of My Murder”

DC's 1987 "New Format" series continues with this striking fifth issue, featuring a cover by José Luis García-López that frames the Spectre in a quietly haunting Hamlet-like pose — his chalk-white figure crouching atop a mound of skulls, holding a single skull up to contemplate it, while a vivid tableau of armored warriors in battle blazes behind him. The title "The Mystery of My Murder" promises the kind of brooding, morally weighted storytelling that makes this series so compelling, brought to life inside by the team of Doug Moench, Gene Colan, and Steve Mitchell.
