Extreme Justice #13

The cover promises exactly what the banner delivers — "Extreme Justice vs. Monarch: Final Round" — as two armored combatants slam into each other in a fierce, close-quarters clash, while a third figure reacts in the background, clearly caught in the chaos. Chris Batista's pencils and Chip Wallace's inks bring a raw, kinetic energy to the confrontation that perfectly captures mid-'90s DC at full throttle. With Robert Washington III writing and Tom Morgan on interior art, issue #13 looks like a genuinely satisfying payoff to this team's ongoing showdown with Monarch.
