About this Collection

This omnibus collects the Bronze Age adventures of DC's strangest superhero team, the Doom Patrol, featuring stories from the late 1970s and early 1980s. It includes the team's revival in Showcase #94-96 and their subsequent series, The Doom Patrol vol. 2 #1-18, along with related appearances, showcasing the original team members Robotman, Negative Man, and Elasti-Girl, as well as new additions like Celsius and Tempest. The volume captures the quirky, offbeat tone of the era, with contributions from writers like Paul Kupperberg and artists like Joe Staton and Steve Lightle.

In "The Doom Patrol Lives Forever!", Robotman returns to the ruined headquarters only to discover a new team has taken up residence—though their presence is far from welcoming. When General Immortus attacks, Robotman must confront not just an old enemy, but the unsettling truth that the Doom Patrol may be more than just a memory. Written by Paul Kupperberg and illustrated by Joe Staton, with colors by Liz Berube and letters by Bill Morse, this story unfolds under Steve Lightle’s striking cover.
