“Return to Forever!”

Deadman soars front and center on this opening chapter of DC's 1986 four-part mini-series, rendered in striking detail by José Luis García-López — his red-suited, white-faced figure rising defiantly against a vivid collage of countless human faces that fill the background in bold pinks and blues. The image captures something essential about Boston Brand's ghostly existence: one man adrift among multitudes, connected to humanity yet apart from it. Writer Andrew Helfer and García-López make a compelling creative pairing for this fresh take on one of DC's most distinctive characters.
