In "Rx Migrane M.D.", Dr. Migrane—tired of his routine life—takes a dramatic turn after his nurse June urges him to make a splash. What starts as a bid for attention spirals into something far more unpredictable than he ever imagined. Written by Jack Mendelsohn and brought to life with sharp, surreal flair by Bill Elder on art and inks, with vibrant colors by Marie Severin and crisp lettering by Jim Wroten, this 1955 EC Comics standout delivers a twisted, darkly comic twist on medical ambition.
