“The Death of Hourman”

In "The Death of Hourman," Tom Peyer and Rags Morales deliver a haunting, time-bending tale where Hourman’s desperate use of the miraclo pill plunges him into a surreal, accelerated vision of Rex Tyler’s life—living decades in moments, leaving chaos in his wake. The story unfolds with a visceral, dreamlike intensity, rendered in bold art by Morales and Meikis, with colors by John Kalisz and Heroic Age, all under the sharp lettering of Kurt Hathaway.
