Oh, Killstrike #1

Oh, Killstrike #1 introduces a delightfully absurd premise: when comic book collector Jared tries to profit from a notoriously bad 1990s comic, the over-the-top hero inside it literally comes to life and demands a mission of vengeance. With writer Max Bemis and artist Logan Faerber crafting a story that’s equal parts satire and heartfelt odd-couple road trip, the issue sets up a cross-country chase to confront Jared’s estranged father, a British comic book writer. The cover by Logan Faerber captures the comic’s tongue-in-cheek energy, perfectly framing the clash between pop culture nostalgia and chaotic reality.
