“Rites of Passage, Prologue: Into Thin Air”

Part of DC's Vertigo imprint, The Books of Magic #26 brings writer John Ney Rieber and artist Peter Gross together for "Rites of Passage, Prologue: Into Thin Air." August Hall's cover painting sets a quietly evocative tone — a bespectacled young boy, backpack slung over his shoulder and a triangular pennant in hand, glances back against a warm backdrop of an American flag and the Golden Gate Bridge, suggesting a journey both literal and something more. It's a beautifully understated image for what promises to be a meaningful new chapter in Tim Hunter's ongoing story.
