Hotwire: Requiem for the Dead

In 2010, Radical Comics launched Hotwire: Requiem for the Dead, a one-issue comic series from artist Steve Pugh that plunges readers into a near-future where the dead can be roused and controlled by technology. This self-contained story follows a world where ghostly manifestations are a tangible threat, blending horror and sci-fi as it explores the consequences of tampering with the afterlife. Pugh's distinctive, gritty artwork anchors this brief but potent entry in the publisher's catalog, offering a tight, atmospheric tale that stands as a unique snapshot of Radical's ambitious, creator-driven line.
