Crisis Aftermath: The Spectre #3

The concluding chapter of this Infinite Crisis Aftermath three-parter arrives with a cover that makes an immediate impression: a towering, red-eyed Spectre — hooded, green-faced, and roaring — looms over a lone human figure on a rooftop who raises a gun in defiance, the city skyline blazing purple and amber behind them. Cliff Chiang's clean, boldly graphic linework gives the Spirit of Vengeance a genuinely unsettling presence, the scale contrast between the two figures doing all the storytelling work the cover needs. Writer Will Pfeifer and artist Chiang wrap up "Dead Again" with what promises to be a confrontation as big as that cover suggests.
