Rom #17 - Frank Miller cover

Frank Miller

Rom (Spaceknight) v1 #17, 1981 - The X-men guest star in this two-part storyline, conveniently attracting new readers to the title. Frank Miller's cover seems spontaneously drawn but suffers from the inker's lack of clarity. Alongside Rom, Wolverine is prominently featured, the path of his claws leading the eye from the masthead to the title character. Miller places the moon directly behind the child's head, suggesting an innocence not unlike early Byzantine halos in Europe. Other artists in this copper age comic include Sal Buscema. This is 3 of 4 Rom issues by Miller.
