Alex + Ada #10

Three figures stand side by side with eyes downcast against a quietly moody teal gradient — a blonde woman, a dark-haired young man, and a dark-haired woman — their subdued body language radiating tension and unspoken weight. Jonathan Luna and Sarah Vaughn's Alex + Ada has built one of 2014's most quietly compelling science-fiction relationship dramas, and this tenth issue cover distills that emotional intimacy with striking restraint. Luna's clean, expressive linework makes even stillness feel charged.
