Gladstone's School for World Conquerors #3

Issue three of Gladstone's School for World Conquerors crackles with energy as a white-haired young figure in red surges forward, fists blazing with fiery power, while a crowd of blue-skinned alien beings — ranging from hulking adults to smaller, wide-eyed creatures — surrounds them against a swirling orange and pink sky. Mark Andrew Smith and Armand Villavert have crafted a series that puts a delightfully fresh spin on villainy-in-training, and this 2011 Image cover promises the kind of over-the-top confrontation that makes the concept so much fun. If you've been curious about what school looks like when world domination is the curriculum, this issue looks like a fine place to find out.
