I really like Ex Machina. The way the storyline is set in the past and uses what happens to interject a fantastic character into politics and the world like Mitchell Hundred is fun and amazing...what a novel concept!

Here we see the shadow of President Bush who is on his way to New York. We get to see what Hundred thinks of Bush and also the issue shows a one woman ad terrorist focusing on Bush. And hints at the 2008 election.

Also this issue had some hilarious scenes and lines with Hundred trying to write speeches and ending up with perverted lines about how he hates writing. This series is quality...surprised this isn't a Vertigo book.
