OMAC #7

The penultimate chapter of this eight-issue DC series arrives with a striking cover by Renato Guedes, depicting two OMAC-transformed figures — one in blue with the distinctive Brother Eye emblem, the other in purple — locked together in a turbulent, cloud-filled sky, their crackling energy patterns suggesting both connection and conflict. Writer Bruce Jones brings his run to the brink of conclusion with "And One Alone Shall Rise," a title that lends the image an unmistakable sense of finality. With only one issue left to follow, this is a compelling moment to catch up on one of 2007's more intimate takes on DC's techno-viral warrior concept.
