Promethea #3
Promethea #3 (2021) delivers a mind-bending final chapter that defies convention, with Alan Moore and J. H.

The issue’s unique layout, featuring upside-down pages and a structure designed for multiple reading paths, turns the comic into a tactile, experimental experience that challenges how we engage with the medium.
