Star Wars: Darth Maul #1

Drew Struzan's cover for this first issue of the four-part Dark Horse series presents an arresting close-up of Darth Maul's tattooed, horned face, his single yellow eye catching the light as a brilliant starburst blazes across the composition. The effect is genuinely striking — half the Sith Lord's visage consumed by darkness, the other half illuminated against a star-filled void. With Ron Marz writing and Jan Duursema on interior art, this 2000 series promises a focused, atmospheric look at one of the most visually distinctive figures in the Star Wars galaxy.
