Justice League Unlimited #21

The cover title says it all — "Love Hurts!" — as Green Lantern John Stewart and a fierce, spike-adorned female warrior clash in a crackling burst of green energy, their expressions locked in equal parts fury and anguish. Ty Templeton's clean, animated-style linework captures the tension perfectly, matching the bold look of the Cartoon Network series this issue ties into. With Adam Beechen writing and Carlo Barberi on interior art, Justice League Unlimited #21 promises the kind of action-meets-emotion that makes this all-ages series such a satisfying read.
