“Blue Angels”

In "Blue Angels," Harvey Pekar recalls a childhood moment that still echoes: a reckless game of baseball that ends with a shattered window, defying his father’s warning. With Frank Stack handling art, inks, and letters, the story captures a quiet yet charged memory from a life lived in the margins. Val Mayerik’s cover art complements the tale’s reflective tone, a 3.00 USD comic from 1987 that finds poetry in the ordinary.
