Burnout

Rebecca Donner and Inaki Miranda's Burnout is a single-issue DC comic from 2008 that explores the gritty, high-stakes world of a young woman navigating a life of crime and survival. With Donner's sharp, character-driven writing and Miranda's expressive, noir-infused art, the story delivers a compact, intense character study. Though brief, it stands out as a potent example of the kind of focused, creator-driven storytelling DC occasionally championed in the late 2000s.
