Heart of Empire #3 (1999, Dark Horse) delivers a gripping blend of political intrigue and speculative mystery, with American journalists attending a Levellers gathering, Princess Victoria delving into her family’s hidden history, and futurists plotting a radical upheaval. Written by John Coulthart and Bryan Talbot, with art by both and inks by Coulthart and Talbot, the issue unfolds through layered storytelling and striking visuals, while WOTAN warns paratime agents of a destabilizing psionic vortex. The cover, a collaborative effort by Bryan Talbot and William Morris, captures the story’s tense, otherworldly atmosphere.
