Gotham City Sirens #8

Poison Ivy's vivid green face peers through a gap in wooden slats on this striking March 2010 cover, her piercing eye and lush lips rendered with an almost unsettling intimacy — as if she's watching someone who doesn't yet know they're being watched. Four leaf-shaped portrait badges along the left edge hint at a cast of characters drawn into her orbit. With Guillem March handling both writing and art alongside co-writer Marc Andreyko, Gotham City Sirens #8 promises the kind of layered, atmospheric Gotham storytelling that made this series a standout of its era.
