In "Hollow-Scream It’s 2 Slow," Dave Berg delivers a sharp, satirical dive into the quiet absurdities of modern life—office routines, fleeting connections, and the weight of expectations—through his signature deadpan wit. With his distinctive art and writing, Berg captures the rhythm of daily grind, from therapy sessions to toy-filled desks, all rendered in the unmistakable style of his own pencils and inks. The cover by Mort Drucker adds a layer of classic EC flair, perfectly matching the issue’s tone.
