Madman Comics #4

Madman Comics #4 brings Mike Allred's quirky hero front and center in a genuinely striking 1994 cover — the pale, wide-eyed Madman towers over a churning sea while clutching a massive ship's prow, lightning crackling through the storm-dark sky around him. It's a moody, larger-than-life image that captures the strange blend of retro superheroics and eerie atmosphere that makes this series so appealing. With Allred handling the full art duties and Laura Allred lending her distinct color sensibility to the interiors, "Waning Of The Weird" promises exactly the kind of offbeat adventure the cover so vividly teases.
