Thulsa Doom #4

Robert E. Howard's sinister sorcerer takes center stage on this striking cover, where Thulsa Doom is rendered in visceral close-up — mouth agape, fanged teeth bared, his muscular form bathed in deep crimson as he raises a weapon in one hand. It's an unnerving, almost hypnotic portrait of pure menace that captures exactly why this villain has endured as one of fantasy's darkest figures. Dynamite's 2009 series wraps up here with a cover that demands attention from across the room.
