Damage Control #1

The Marvel Universe's cleanup crew finally gets its own spotlight in this charming 1989 four-issue limited series. Ernie Colón's cover says it all: Spider-Man cheerfully gestures toward a mountain of superhero-inflicted rubble — crumbled buildings, shattered debris — while Thor flies overhead mid-battle, and three Damage Control employees (a hard-hatted worker, a suited executive, and a woman in a trench coat) survey the wreckage with weary, deadpan expressions. It's a wonderfully funny premise — "when the Super Heroes need help, they call Damage Control" — and the cover delivers that comedy perfectly before you've even turned a single page.
