USA magazine #54
In "Margot in Badtown," a 1991 issue from Comics USA, writer Jerome Charyn and artist Massimiliano Frezzato craft a gritty urban tale as Margot finds herself caught between a wrecking crew and the crumbling neighborhood they’re tearing down. With the developers’ push to replace tenants with condos, Margot must navigate a simmering conflict where loyalty and survival are tested in the heart of Badtown. The story unfolds with sharp, atmospheric art by Frezzato and a striking cover by David Dorman.
In the crumbling heart of Badtown, Margot finds herself caught between loyalty and survival when her apartment is destroyed by a wrecking crew—only to be hired by their boss to keep the demolition crew moving. As tensions rise between developers like Henry Starr and Sebastian, and the displaced residents they’re pushing out, Margot must navigate a web of shifting alliances, where every promise comes with a price.
In "L'homme dans le brouillard," a young artist stumbles into a thick fog after witnessing a brutal attack, fleeing toward a distant house where a doctor lives. As he seeks refuge and recounts what he saw, a chilling realization dawns—his host is the very man he fled from. The story unfolds in tense silence and shadow, where every breath feels like a step closer to the edge.
