Galveston

In the aftermath of a devastating hurricane, Galveston (2008–2009) from Boom! Studios offers a gritty, four-issue miniseries exploring a fractured Texas coastal community struggling to rebuild. Written by Brian K. Vaughan with art by Jacob Harrell, it grounds its speculative fiction in visceral human drama, examining survival, corruption, and resilience in a town left to fend for itself. This compact, atmospheric story stands as a stark character study rather than a superhero spectacle, showcasing Boom!'s early commitment to mature, creator-driven genre work.
