The Authority: Revolution #9

Part nine of Ed Brubaker's twelve-part "Revolution" arc arrives with a cover by Dustin Nguyen that crackles with tension — a grim, bald figure stands in the foreground against a blood-red background while behind him, blue lightning tears through a second figure whose head appears to be violently fragmenting. Subtitled "The Truth About Henry," the image carries a strong sense of revelation and reckoning, hinting at the kind of morally charged storytelling that made this 2005 Wildstorm series such compelling reading for mature audiences.
