The Vigilante #25
In "Cruel and Unusual Punishment...", Dave, a man haunted by his past, follows a hit man through the city's underbelly, his thoughts drifting to the life he never lived—his family's legacy of law enforcement and the path he chose instead. Written by Paul Kupperberg and brought to life by Denys Cowan’s dynamic art, Alfredo Alcalá’s inks, Tatjana Wood’s colors, and Agustin Más’s sharp lettering, this 1986 issue captures a tense, introspective moment in a story that refuses to let its protagonist escape his choices. The cover by Dan Day and Rick Magyar sets a stark, moody tone for the issue’s dark, character-driven mystery.
