Michael Avon Oeming can’t get enough “Powers.” He and writer Brian Michael Bendis launched the series over a decade ago, chronicling the adventures of Deena Pilgrim and Christian Walker, a pair of seemingly normal cops working in a world filled with people with superpowers. The series began at Image Comics in 2000 where it remained for 37 issues before moving over to Marvel Comics’ creator-owned Icon imprint where it remained for another 30 issues before taking a break in 2008. A third series launched in 2009, running 11 issues before hitting the pause button once again in 2012.<\/p>\n
