Every week, I'll be bringing you a comic book cover that I feel eclipses others out there—to the point I might just have to own it!
The BadAss Comic Book Cover for this week is for
Game of Thrones #20. Why do I love this cover? It's
Game of Thrones, man! Mike S. Miller shows the devastation that a mounted knight can do to his opponents! The art has a great deal of action in it, movement everywhere, and that's not easy to accomplish with one large panel. I also love the amount of detail Miller gives Jaime Lannister, his armor, and his horse. A beautiful piece for a great adaptation!

But the fortunes of war are not so easily manipulated, as Lord Tywin is about to learn, to his great regret...and even greater rage. For in a brilliant tactical move, the host of young Robb Stark has descended upon the army of Jaime Lannister outside the besieged gates of Riverrun, and has won a great victory...and a prize that might end the war before it has fairly begun.
