Cover by ME!
This issue is sort of all about Mary. How evil she is, how far past having lost her humanity she has come, and how there is no way for Andrew to redeem her...which means they are enemies. So I wanted to do a cover focusing on Mary and her frivolously evil spirit. Humans are her playthings, and murder is just a trivial part of her day. Lightheartedly, and with a skip in her step, she exits the scene of her latest slaughter. Meanwhile, we see a glimpse of Andrew and his heavy guilt knowing he has unleashed this monster upon the world. He is determined now to do whatever he can to stop her.
Here's what DC has to say: True love becomes divine hatred between the Queen of Blood and Andrew, as her vampires begin their attacks across the country. Their past behind them, they find themselves ready to battle to the death... If those feelings really are all gone. Surrounded by swarms of bloodthirsty vamps, Andrew must confront his immortal beloved in a blood-soaked battle he can't win.
