Warlock #10 - Jim Starlin art & cover



Warlock #10, 1975 - Thanos joins Warlock in his fight against the Church of Universal Truth. Jim Starlin's chaotic cover prefaces a battle against overwhelming odds. The opening splash's view directly from above is jarring, but firmly establishes the setting. A variety of layouts follow, each visually arresting and appropriate. A second full page depicts the main characters against a dazzling technological backdrop. The story also has a brief interlude, recapping Thanos' history and events that occurred previously in Captain Marvel #25-33. These pages and more make this issue Starlin's best in the series. This is number 2 of 7 Warlock issues with Starlin art and/or covers. See today's posts or more Starlin or Warlock issues.
