Powers 25 #10 Explodes Partner Rivalry, Asks: Can a Super-Powered Cop Be Impartial?

Detectives Kutter and Moon's partnership hits a dramatic breaking point in Powers 25 #10, out this Wednesday from Dark Horse Comics. This issue ratchets up the tension with the series' signature blend of high-stakes detective work and moral quandaries.
Fans know Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Avon Oeming's Powers for its gritty exploration of a world teeming with superheroes, where human police investigate their super-powered crimes. Here, the heat is on Moon as his own powers come under intense scrutiny. Can a super-powered detective truly remain impartial? And what about Kutter's own controversial moves?
Critics are already raving, with AIPT giving it a perfect 10/10 and Comics Beat praising its ability to make Powers feel fresh and relevant. The preview teases explosive action — super-powered figures wreaking havoc, a spectacular building collapse — all while our feuding partners struggle to coordinate. It's classic Powers: diving deep into what it means to uphold the law in an extraordinary world.
“Can a super-powered detective truly remain impartial, and what about Kutter's own controversial moves?”
Catzye Take
This issue perfectly embodies why Powers remains such a beloved series — it constantly challenges assumptions about heroism and justice. Fans should grab this to see how Bendis and Oeming continue to innovate within their own legendary creation. It’s a masterclass in character-driven crime fiction.
