Ether #1

From Matt Kindt and David Rubin comes Ether: Death of the Last Golden Blaze, a trade collecting the opening arc of this imaginative Dark Horse series. Rubin's cover pulls you in immediately — a figure in a diving suit tumbles through a swirling ethereal void above, while below, a fiery, wild-haired being erupts in a blaze of orange and yellow flame, the two worlds feeling thrillingly at odds. It's the kind of striking visual contrast that earns a "stands out among the rest" from Newsarama, and at $14.99 it's an inviting entry point into whatever strange dimension Kindt has dreamed up.
