Green Arrow / Black Canary #29

This haunting cover by José Ladrönn sets a stark, unsettling tone for issue #29: a blonde-haired woman — Black Canary — lies collapsed in blood-stained snow, scattered arrows embedded in the ground around her, while a figure in fishnet stockings and boots stands over her. It's a striking visual that leans hard into the tension the "vs." in the title promises, closing out the "Five Stages" arc with its fifth and final chapter, "Acceptance." Andrew Kreisberg, Mike Norton, and Bill Sienkiewicz deliver a full 30-page adventure that clearly doesn't pull its punches.
