Ex Machina #49

Written by Brian K. Vaughan
Art by Tony Harris

In the penultimate issue of Ex Machina, Mayor Hundred suits up as the Great Machine to track down Suzanne Padilla, and end her threat to the world.  There are going to be some pretty big implications of Hundred using his powers so publicly, but Vaughan is saving them for the last issue.

As always, this book is quick and witty, and features incredible artwork from Tony Harris.  I have liked this title from the very beginning; it's mix of politics with super hero-ing has always been unique and interesting, and felt much more grounded in the real world than other comic books.

It's great that Vaughan has been able to play out the story as he has always intended, and I'm really looking forward to seeing how it ends.
