Solo #9
DC's Solo anthology series gave each issue entirely to one artist, and issue #9 belongs completely to the remarkably versatile Scott Hampton. The cover sets a wonderfully off-kilter tone: a heavyset, trench-coated figure in a fedora carries a battered suitcase while a scaly reptilian tail curls conspicuously behind him — equal parts noir atmosphere and something distinctly stranger. With Hampton handling every creative role from script to color, this 2006 issue promises a deeply personal vision, anchored by a story titled "Batman: 1947" that already hints at a moody, period-soaked sensibility.
