Slow Death #11

Last Gasp's Slow Death #11 (1992) keeps the underground anthology's environmentally charged spirit alive with a cover by Greg Irons that crackles with sardonic energy — anthropomorphic apes mob a highway clogged with hot rods and a massive tanker truck, one quipping "Gas lines? We don't need no stinkin' gas lines!" while a vignette labeled "Them" depicts riot police dispersing protesters outside Seabrook Nuclear Farm. The "ENERGY!" banner blazing across the bottom ties the chaotic scene together into a pointed, darkly comic commentary on fossil fuels and power. Inside, Alan Moore and Bryan Talbot contribute "Cold Snap," making this an intriguing meeting of underground comix attitude and British comics craft.
