Sex #27

This 2016 Image Comics issue presents a striking, minimalist cover rendered against a cool sage green: a lone, vulnerable unclothed figure stands barefoot at the fore, facing the viewer while a tight formation of nine stern men in dark suits looms behind them. The contrast between the solitary, exposed individual and the imposing, uniformed group creates an immediate sense of tension and power imbalance that Joe Casey's Sex has always excelled at evoking. At $2.99, it's a compelling visual statement from a series unafraid to use its covers as genuine art.
