☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Time Waits for No Man," a man’s desperate bid to steal a life-extending serum from Native Americans sends him hurtling through time, unaged but haunted by visions of eternity. Joe Gill’s story, illustrated with striking precision by Matt Baker and inked by Jon D'Agostino, unfolds as a surreal meditation on mortality, culminating in a dreamlike return where the serum is reclaimed—but the man is no longer the same. The cover, a striking double-dip by Rocco "Rocke" Mastroserio and Dick Giordano, captures the eerie stillness of a moment suspended between worlds.
In "Time Waits for No Man," a man’s desperate attempt to steal a life-extending serum from Native Americans sends him hurtling through time, unaged and untethered. When he awakens, he finds himself back at the beginning—just before the theft—yet forever altered by the visions of endless years. The story’s quiet power lies in its haunting, dreamlike rhythm, with typeset letters grounding the tale in its vintage, otherworldly tone.
