Every Mind MGMT Cover!

Last week, Matt Kindt's critically acclaimed psychic spy series Mind MGMT concluded with Dark Horse at 36 issues.

This is actually not beyond the scope of things Kindt does in the comic itself to hide clues and messages (get out your magnifying glass and always read the margins of his work), but he replied in the negative, however, with a reminder:

I actually missed that since 6 was the issue I came in on when it was first being published! I'll have to go back and reassemble…
