Drums #1

From Image Comics in 2011, Drums #1 announces itself with a striking cover by Raul Allen — a woman in a white skirt arches dramatically backward, beads draped around her neck, as massive crimson flames billow upward from her very breath or being. Surrounding her at ground level are candles, skulls, a bowl, and scattered ritual objects that immediately signal a story steeped in spiritual intensity and dark ceremony. Allen's deep red palette and fluid linework make this opener genuinely hard to put down before you've even cracked the cover.
