Plastic Man #11

Kyle Baker's cartoony, expressive cover for this 2004 DC series says it all: a sharp-eared, suit-and-red-tie government type dangles a pair of sunglasses with cool suspicion, while a skeptical blonde in a black top stands arms-crossed in front of what appears to be the White House — all under the bold banner "Homeland Security." With "Intelligence Failure" as the story title, Baker's signature style promises sharp political wit wrapped in the rubbery, irreverent spirit Plastic Man does best.
