Doom Patrol #60

A swirling storm of psychedelic color surrounds a wild-haired young woman — wide-eyed, open-mouthed, clutching her own face as she's pulled into some kind of chromatic vortex — and it's an utterly arresting image from cover artist Jamie Hewlett. Grant Morrison and Richard Case were deep into their celebrated Doom Patrol run by 1992, and this "Suggested for Mature Readers" issue, subtitled "Brief Candles," promises the same beautifully strange energy the series had built its reputation on. If you've been following along, this one looks like it keeps the weirdness cranked up right where it belongs.
