Relative Heroes #5

The cover of this 2000 DC series puts the spotlight squarely on Omni — a young blonde woman in a yellow-and-white suit sprinting forward with an open-mouthed expression of urgency — while a swirling, plant-like green entity looms large behind her. The cheeky multiple-choice caption ("A) Irrepressible Showoff, B) Gifted Super-hero, C) Xenoadaptive Leech, D) All of the Above") hints at the tongue-in-cheek self-awareness running through Devin Kalile Grayson's run on the title. Yvel Guichet's cover pencils, inked by Aaron Sowd, give the scene a kinetic energy that makes this fifth chapter of "Grail of Steel" feel like the story is hitting its stride.
