Twilight Zone The Shadow #3

The cover by Francesco Francavilla is a striking piece — a colossal, unseen hand reaches down from a swirling vortex of concentric rings toward the caped, hat-brimmed silhouette of the Shadow, who stands defiantly amid the spiraling chaos above an enormous vintage typewriter. That collision of the eerie Twilight Zone aesthetic with pulp fiction's most mysterious avenger makes for a genuinely compelling image, suggesting forces far larger than any one man pulling the strings. David Avallone and Dave Acosta continue their crossover with issue three, subtitled "Birth of the Shadow," and this cover alone promises something both strange and satisfying.
