The Loners #5

In "Chinks in the Armor," the Loners face off against the deadly Nekra, but tensions within the team erupt when Phil confronts the growing bond between Chris and Mickey—and the group’s own contradictions. Fueled by frustration, he seizes Chris’ amulet and transforms into the darkened form of Darkhawk. Written by C. B. Cebulski and illustrated by Karl Moline, with inks by Moline and Mark Pennington, colors by Beth Sotelo, and letters by Virtual Calligraphy and Rus Wooton, the issue’s cover by Jason Pearson captures the moment of transformation in stark, dramatic detail.
