About the series
In the mid-1990s, Rick Veitch brought his King Hell imprint two oversized, standalone specials that expanded on his deconstructionist superhero mythos. Bratpack and Maximortal Super Special each delivered dense, unflinching satires of the genre's dark underbelly, presented in Veitch's signature, expressive style. These issues matter as potent, self-contained additions to his acclaimed body of work, offering a concentrated dose of his cynical yet heartfelt take on costumed heroes.
