“The Beating”

🏆 Best New Series (2023)

From a world a million years ago, DC's 1975 launch of Tor drops readers straight into prehistoric chaos — the cover by Joe Kubert shows the muscular caveman Tor wielding a bone club as he battles a snarling mob of ape-like creatures, with a long-necked dinosaur looming atop the title lettering against a blazing orange sky. Kubert's linework crackles with raw energy, capturing Tor surrounded and outnumbered yet utterly defiant. If prehistoric survival adventure drawn with real craft is your thing, this first DC issue is a compelling place to start.
