Empowered Omnibus #1

Adam Warren's Empowered Omnibus Volume 1 collects the early chapters of his beloved series in one generous package, and the cover sets the tone perfectly — a confident, smiling Emp in her star-speckled supersuit strikes a triumphant pose at the center of a wonderfully chaotic crowd of costumed heroes, villains, and assorted weirdos. Warren's artwork packs the frame with personality, from a masked blue-and-gold hero flexing alongside Emp to a shark-headed figure and dozens of other bizarre supporting characters jostling for space. At $34.99 from Dark Horse, this 2020 omnibus is a fantastic way to dive deep into one of the most charming and self-aware superhero series in comics.
