After much review I essentially combined the creepy and informative styles used in previous drafts. Each piece utilizes a striking statistic juxtaposed with an image to both draw attention, but also suggest the intensity of the statistic presented. The bright yellow-green was used to emphasize the idea of the wicked witch from Snow White and the poison apple analogy. Also, the stem and leaf motif was used to create a sense of identity to the pieces and to suggest there is more than just these three pieces. Lastly, the pattern in the background is designed to reflect the mass amount of people this issue affects. Using the typical bathroom stall male image also fits with a statistic style.
I tried to mix very similar designs with that of pieces that can be independent. The first two are similar in design and I think they fit together better than the third. Granted, these would typically not be seen all at once, but I would have liked all three to be more similar. That being said, I feel the third is a strong design in itself because of the strong attention it draws from the viewer.

The final posters go together well... they are unified by their color and background, and the little apple leaves serves as a secondary level that ties them together if you look more closely. The green images seem to be working better than the black cross, though I think I understand where that was coming from. The style of your text is both arresting and serious, so that's good. I can imagine the people in the background being reflective, so that the poster has a sort of luster to it.
Just a comment about your website - check the link of the first series piece -- the larger image does not show up when clicked.
