“Supergroup Part Three”

Michael Avon Oeming's cover for Powers #17 is a striking exercise in minimalism — a massive, angular face rendered in deep reds and stark shadows, gazing upward with an almost monolithic stillness. The bold graphic design feels genuinely unsettling, using geometry and mood where other covers might lean on action. Part three of "Supergroup" awaits inside, and this Image series from Bendis and Oeming continues to show why it earned its devoted following in 2002.
