Dominion

In the late 2000s, Boom! Studios published Dominion, a compact five-issue series that explores a world where a mysterious event grants a handful of people the power to control others. Written by Michael Alan Nelson, Keith Giffen, and Ross Richie, with art by Tim Hamilton, the story examines the moral and societal fallout of absolute authority in the hands of the few. This tightly wound thriller stands out for its focused, philosophical take on power dynamics, offering a thoughtful counterpoint to the era's more bombastic superhero fare.
