The Ambassadors #2

Karl Kerschl's cover for this second issue of Mark Millar's global superhero series is a striking aerial view: a powerfully built figure drifts serenely above a bustling, densely packed city street — taxis, buses, and crowds sprawling in every direction below — carried along a glowing violet beam of energy while two white doves soar alongside. The bird's-eye perspective gives the scene both grandeur and calm, suggesting a hero at ease with an extraordinary ability. It's a visually inventive Image Comics series that promises a superhero story with a genuinely international sense of place.
