Lethargic Comics

A short-lived satirical series from Alpha Productions, Lethargic Comics (1994–1995) ran for 15 issues, gleefully skewering the superhero and pop-culture conventions of the early '90s. Most closely associated with creators Greg Hyland and John Migliore (writing) and artists Hyland and Scott Shaw, the book offered a consistently goofy, self-aware take on the medium's tropes. Its significance lies in capturing a specific moment of comic-book parody, delivering low-key laughs and affectionate ribbing for readers who knew the genre well.
