About the series
In this darkly comedic four-issue Image series from 2017–2018, a hapless, skull-faced superhero struggles to make ends meet in a world that has no use for him. Written by Joe Casey and illustrated by Piotr Kowalski, Bonehead satirizes the superhero genre by grounding its absurd premise in very real financial and existential dread. It’s a sharp, self-contained story that captures the era’s trend of deconstructing caped crusaders with a blend of deadpan humor and melancholy.
