About the series
Dean Haspiel’s Brawl (2007–present, Image) is a three-issue, creator-owned slugfest that pits a washed-up boxer against a new breed of super-powered combatants. Haspiel writes and draws every punch, channeling the grit of classic fight comics into a lean, personal story about aging, pride, and the price of a comeback. It stands as a raw, self-contained example of Image’s early-aughts commitment to idiosyncratic, auteur-driven genre work.
