Ex Machina #27

Issue #27 of Brian K. Vaughan's WildStorm series arrives in June 2007 with a cover by Tony Harris that splits the image into three bold color panels — orange, green, and blue — each depicting a stern-faced man in a suit gripping a pair of balanced scales. The tripartite design gives the figure an almost judicial gravity, suggesting themes of balance, judgment, and division running through this second chapter of "Power Down." Harris's clean linework and sharp color blocking make for a quietly striking cover that reflects the series' grounded, politically charged tone.
