Written by George Gladir and brought to life with vibrant art by Stan Goldberg, this 2002 Double Digest tale captures the energy of a band finding their rhythm again, all while sparking a surprising shift in Mr. Lodge’s plans. The cover by Jeff Shultz and Henry Scarpelli perfectly captures the moment’s electric vibe.
