Gen 13 #26

Five figures dominate this striking WildStorm cover — a central woman in a dark bodysuit with vivid pink gloves commands the foreground, flanked by two tall blonde women and two figures partially visible in the background, while two smaller faces peer up from the lower portion in a contrasting pink palette. Dan Hipp's bold, stylized linework gives the whole composition a cool, graphic-novel sensibility that feels distinctly contemporary for 2009. With Scott Beatty's "Teenage Wasteland, Intermission: The Second Most Dangerous Game" inside — plus a Christie Blaze backup chapter — this issue offers a solid double dose of Gen 13 action.
