Steel Wolf #371 cover

"INTO THE NEGAVERSE!! When an unknown distress call in Russian is detected by ANAHITA on board the PARHELION, it's up to STEEL WOLF to brave the trans-matter shift and journey into the strange realm known as the Negaverse! Who are the heroes known as THE PROTEKTORY, and how did they become trapped in this strange anti-dimension? And if they WERE trapped, who is responsible!? Join series writer ERIC N. BENNETT along with HIP COMICS' own RIK VAN NIEDEK and artist supreme GILBERT MONSANTO for this journey into mystery!"


So, what do you do when you've got no new cover-worthy art coming? You improvise! I really love the Russian team created by and Ramon Schenk (seen here: fav.me/d4xjenz ) and have wanted to team them up with Steel Wolf for some time. But they've never reached the design stage where they had been colored, so that remains an unknown. SO, since I had draw them awhile back, I decided to use that lineart along with lineart of Steel Wolf, and do a cover that doesn't require any colors! Problem solved! And anti-matter universes are always fun and make for a striking cover.

Enjoy!!
