Empyre: Captain America #2

Ariel Olivetti and Rachelle Rosenberg bring their talents to this second chapter of Marvel's 2020 Empyre crossover, tying Captain America squarely into the alien invasion chaos. Mike Henderson's cover tells an unsettling story all on its own — a skull-faced figure in Cap's star-spangled uniform hurls the shield amid a crowd of similarly skeletal soldiers, all bathed in an eerie yellow-green haze with a towering explosion behind them. Phillip Kennedy Johnson's script promises that whatever is happening to Earth's defenders during the Empyre event, it's far stranger and more disturbing than a straightforward battlefield brawl.
