Weird War Tales #44
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Photo Finish," the third and final part of a gripping time-traveling tale, Barry of Bleeker Street emerges from a future ravaged by war to warn the present-day staff of Lacy's department store about the world he left behind. Written by Sheldon Mayer and brought to life with dynamic, detailed artwork by Alfredo Alcala—pencils, inks, and lettering all by the same hand—this 1976 DC classic blends speculative dread with a quiet urgency. The cover, a striking collaboration by Joe Kubert, captures the story’s tense, otherworldly tone.
In a shattered future where the world is ruled by the Emperor of Weehawken, Barry of Bleeker Street emerges from the ruins of 700 years later to warn the present—1974—of a coming collapse. As he recounts his desperate journey through a war-ravaged timeline, even Death, the ever-watchful host, seems unsettled by the tale of a city that never fell, but was reborn in the image of a forgotten king.
