Bomb Queen #2

Bomb Queen Vol. 6 #2 delivers another bold installment of what the cover proudly calls "The #1 Villain Comic in America," and this 2010 Image Comics series earns that self-proclaimed title with attitude to spare. The cover — penciled and inked by series creator Jimmie Robinson — presents a striking low-angle view of five figures looming overhead against a blue sky, with Bomb Queen herself front and center in her signature skimpy costume, flanked by four other formidable women closing in from above. It's a visually arresting composition that captures the series' unapologetic, mature-readers energy, and comes backed by a 2009 East Bay Comics "Best of the East Bay" award badge.
