“At Play in the Fields of the Lord”

In "At Play in the Fields of the Lord," Grant Morrison and Chas Truog deliver a haunting, dreamlike journey as Animal Man joins James Highwater on a peyote vision quest in Arizona. The story unfolds with quiet intensity, probing the mysterious origins of Animal Man’s powers and hinting at the looming shadow of the Crisis—and what might come after. Brian Bolland’s striking cover captures the surreal tone, while the interior art and colors immerse readers in a world where reality and spirit blur.
