The Wicked + The Divine #44

Issue #44 of The Wicked + The Divine arrives in 2019 with a quietly arresting cover by Jamie McKelvie — a close, luminous portrait of a young woman with cropped violet-tinged hair and large, calm eyes, bathed in warm radiant light while the series logo appears mirrored and overlapping across her face. The unsettling elegance of that reversed title treatment, paired with the headphones resting at her collar, gives the image a dreamy, charged tension that feels entirely at home in Gillen, McKelvie, Wilson, and Cowles's world of gods and pop stardom. A compelling piece of cover design as the series moves toward its conclusion.
