Ex Machina The Great Machine Vote Mitchell Hundred

Ex Machina Great Machine/Mitchell Hundred Campaign Poster

Ex Machina is a political superheroic drama that combines elements of the West Wing, Unbreakable, and a dash of Mad Men.

Brian K. Vaughn and Tony Harris weave a cautionary tale of wielding power both political and super.

We meet Mitchell Hundred talking in the dark to...no one in particular, this is his confession. He tells us in the first few pages of this fifty-issue series that this is a tragedy. We flashback to various times in Mitchell’s life.

Over the next forty-nine issues they lull you into feeling that maybe...maybe Mitchell and his partners, best friend Bradbury, and surrogate father Kremlin, will succeed and overcome the external and internal threaten New York and Mitchell’s administration. Instead their well-intentioned path leads to the only place it can, a hell made of compromise and regret. I love Martin Morazzo's work and thought this would be a really interesting pairing. I love how he composed this piece and drew the Great Machine costume.
