Gladstone's School for World Conquerors #5

Two young villains-in-training — one with wild dark hair and small devil horns crackling with energy, the other a lanky insectoid figure in black and red — stand triumphant atop a rocky perch while a heap of blue-suited henchmen scrambles helplessly below them. Mark Andrew Smith and Armand Villavert's series keeps delivering that rare mix of mischief and heart, and this fifth issue looks like a high point for the School's pint-sized world conquerors. If you've been following along since issue one, the fiery orange chaos of this cover promises the fun is only escalating.
