Kaya #12

This stand-alone issue of Kaya puts the robot empire's hierarchy front and center, with a caped, armored figure — Lord Vox — ascending a staircase while a smaller, crouching robot waits at the bottom, the dynamic between them radiating both authority and unease. The cover's clean white space and bold red-and-yellow palette give the scene an almost cinematic weight, teasing a reckoning in the Poison-Lands and the long-awaited introduction of The Oracle. At just $3.99, issue #12 is a perfect jumping-on point for anyone curious about Image Comics' robot empire saga.
