The Boys #46

Garth Ennis and Russ Braun's "Believe Part Three" arrives in this 2010 Dynamite installment of The Boys, with a cover by Darick Robertson that sets a delightfully absurd tone — a smug, bespectacled little man in a bow tie and red suspenders sits beside a statuesque blonde superheroine in silver armor who sips a martini with regal indifference, an eagle emblem gleaming on her forehead. The odd-couple pairing radiates the series' signature mix of satire and swagger, hinting at the complicated dynamics between the powerful and those who keep tabs on them. If you've been following this arc, issue forty-six looks like exactly the kind of entry that keeps The Boys such a compulsively entertaining read.
