The Invisibles #10

Part of Vertigo's "Countdown to the Millennium" banner, this 1999 installment of Grant Morrison's mind-bending series arrives with a Brian Bolland cover that practically demands attention: a glamorous blonde woman reclines languidly in purple silk, her pose relaxed yet charged with something unspoken, while a hand in the foreground holds a remote control whose buttons read "SPORT, SEX, SHOPPING, RELIGION, TIME, SPACE, DEATH" — a quietly unsettling menu of human preoccupations. The tension between that luxurious, almost cinematic figure and the coldly categorized remote speaks volumes about the series' ongoing fascination with control, desire, and perception. Morrison, Warren Pleece, and Philip Bond bring "Satanstorm, Three: The 'It' Girls" to life inside, making this a compelling chapter in one of Vertigo's most provocative runs.
