The Blue Beetle #29

Blue Beetle peers through a gap in a heavily bolted yellow barrier on Rafael Albuquerque's cover — glowing eyes and an outstretched gauntlet pushing through while a U.S. D.O.I. "No Trespassing" sign below has been pointedly amended to read "PERSECUTED!" It's a sharp, economical image that sets the tone for "Boundaries, Part One: Crossing the Line" perfectly, suggesting Jaime Reyes is somewhere he's not supposed to be — and that the consequences may be more personal than legal. A 2008 DC series hitting its stride, with Albuquerque's bold linework making every inch of this cover count.
