Gotham City Garage #12

Two warrior women stand defiant against a smoke-filled sky on Doug Mahnke's striking cover — a Wonder Woman-styled fighter gripping a pistol and a shaved-headed companion armed with a wrench and sidearm, both dressed in star-spangled battle gear with a flaming, serpentine motorcycle rearing up dramatically behind them. "The Freescape War Part Two" promises the kind of high-octane, road-warrior-meets-superhero action that this series has made its signature, with Kelly, Lanzing, Ching, and Fitzpatrick delivering the goods inside. If you've been riding along with Gotham City Garage, issue #12 looks like a chapter where the stakes have been cranked up considerably.
