It's been far too long since we've had a Black Clover cover! This one is especially cool because it features the two main rivals of the story together. And both are striking dramatic poses that reflect the type of character that they are. Asta charges in with this sword swinging, while Yuno stands back wielding the incredible magic he possesses. Now this is a cover!
