“Semi-Intelligence”

In "Semi-Intelligence," the U.S. 1 series delivers a standout moment as Midnight unleashes her hypno-whip on Poppa, Annie, and Retread, attempting to subdue U.S. and seize control of his truck. But when the vehicle begins acting with an eerie autonomy, the tide turns in a way no one saw coming. Written by Al Milgrom and illustrated by Frank Springer, with inks by Mike Esposito and colors by Ben Sean, the issue’s tension builds through a surreal, almost sentient twist — all capped by Michael Golden’s striking cover.
