About the series
A surreal horror series from DC, The Un-Men ran for 13 issues from 2007 to 2008, written by John Whalen with art by Mike Hawthorne. It reimagines classic freak-show characters as the grotesque, genetically engineered inhabitants of a hidden swamp community, exploring themes of identity and monstrosity. The series stands out for its dark, off-kilter take on the DC Universe, blending body horror with a poignant sense of isolation.
