Fucking great cover by Jae Lee, right? The only problem is that it doesn't exactly have anything to do with what's inside this issue. There are a group of Asian women in their underwear and wearing surgical face masks while they cut up cocaine in this issue...but they're not in full Dominatrix outfits or have gas-masks and they certainly don't have power over Ozymandias. Perhaps this cover has something to do with what happened in #1, which I read (both written by Len Wein, who edited the original
Watchmen series), but vaguely remember. I guess that's not a good thing if I don't remember #1 which came out a few weeks ago. & while I haven't given up on
Before Watchmen, at this juncture the art has been a lot better than the writing. So admire this awesome cover and don't even bother opening up the book.
