In "Death by Decree," the Justice Machine confronts a web of deception when Prosecutor Zarren captures the Machiners, only to be interrupted by Maxinor and his son Robert. As Maxinor reveals the truth—that Georwell is a dictatorship and he’s not the villain the regime claims—he forces the Machiners to question their past actions. Written and illustrated by Michael Gustovich, with inks by Kevin Siembieda and colors by Bob Berry, this pivotal issue sets the stage for a mission to reclaim their names and confront the cost of blind loyalty. The cover, by John Byrne and Mike Gustovich, captures the tension of a world where justice is a weapon of control.
