The Creeper #3

The Creeper dangles upside-down on this striking 1998 DC cover — his wild green hair, manic grin, and flowing red cape splashing against a dark, gear-strewn background that hints at something gone very wrong. Cover artists Shawn Martinbrough and Sal Buscema frame the image with the wry tagline "It Only Hurts When He Laughs!", perfectly capturing the unhinged energy Jack Ryder's alter ego brings to every outing. With Len Kaminski writing and the story titled "Straitjacket," issue #3 promises a chaotic, darkly comedic ride through one of DC's most delightfully twisted corners.
