Noble Causes #22

Noble Causes #22 delivers the series' signature blend of superhero action and soapy drama right on its cover — two figures locked in a visceral, blood-streaked brawl, with a red-suited redhead taking a brutal hit from a dark-armored, cybernetic-looking attacker amid shattered debris and chaos. Gabe Bridwell's cover work is kinetic and hard-hitting, capturing the high stakes that writer Jay Faerber and artist Jon Bosco bring to this Image series about a family where "Sex, Secrets & Super-Powers" are always on the table. If you've been following the Noble family's turbulent saga, this 2006 issue looks like essential reading.
