Doom Patrol #7

Doom Patrol #7 (April 2010) delivers a striking cover by Matthew Clark and John Livesay, featuring a bandage-wrapped figure standing defiantly amid a fiery explosion while a woman in combat gear crouches in the foreground, a golden robotic head resting in her hand. The two characters radiate a tense, battle-worn confidence against the chaos behind them, and the promise of a Metal Men second feature sweetens the deal considerably. With Keith Giffen and J. M. DeMatteis steering the series, this is a solid entry in one of DC's most endearingly unconventional team books.
