Zot! #36

In "The Great Escape," Zot lies wounded on Earth after a brutal encounter with criminals, struggling to hold on as his strength fades. Meanwhile, Uncle Max makes a breakthrough in his long efforts to reconnect with Jenny’s world—finally reestablishing contact and bringing a long-awaited reunion with Zot. Written by Scott McCloud and Ivy Ratafia, with art and inks by McCloud, and lettered by Bob Lappan, this 1991 Eclipse issue delivers emotional weight and quiet hope, all rendered in McCloud’s distinctive style. The cover, also by McCloud, captures the moment of connection with a sense of quiet triumph.
