The wispiness of Dagger's hair and Cloak's.....er, well, cloak is what really drew my eyes. Those erratic, yet motivated lines successfully moves our vision in a sort of counter-clockwise swirling pattern, focusing our attention more on Dagger than on Cloak. This isn't a bad thin, though, because Dagger's light is meant to draw our attention from Cloak's dark abyss as a sign of hope, purity, and all good things. Dagger is meant to be Cloak's moral guide, his good conscience; without her, he's a scatter-brained, melancholic vigilante.
The opaque splatter, the moonlit backdrop, and the muted colors really gives us a sense of atmosphere: a cold, wintry night. This is an aspect I've never thought about with the duo: what season would they fit in? I think you chose an appropriate setting as it enhances the overall feeling.
Again, great job, and love the style. Keep up the good work!
