Deadman #1

In "An Eye for an Eye!" from Deadman #1 (1985), Jo confronts her brother Jeff, a man with a past and a dangerous hunger for money, as he arrives at the circus with unsettling intentions. With Boston Brand’s death still fresh, Deadman watches closely, wondering if Jeff’s sudden return is more than just coincidence.

In "The Game," young Jamie Markus seeks shelter from a storm in an abandoned house, where he spends the night playing a mysterious game with a being who bears his own face. Written by the late, legendary Grant Morrison and illustrated by the hauntingly evocative Dave McKean, the story unfolds with eerie stillness and unsettling intimacy, blurring the line between player and opponent.
