Speed Racer #25

Oct 1989 · Now · 1.75 USD; 2.25 CAD
“Showdown in San Diego”

In "Showdown in San Diego," Speed Racer, still riding high after a hard-fought victory, takes a well-earned break with Trixie and Sparky at the San Diego Comic Con. Tired from the day’s events, Speed falls asleep—only to wake in a dream where he and his friends are revealed as unexpected superheroes. Meanwhile, Mr. Dillin’s shadow looms as his men close in on the sleeping racer. Written by Lamar Waldron and illustrated by Norm Dwyer—with inks by Jim Brozman, colors by Patrick Owsley, and letters by Dan Nakrosis—this 1989 issue blends high-octane racing with a surreal twist, all wrapped in a cover by Norm Dwyer.
