Marshal Law: The Hateful Dead

Pat Mills and Kevin O'Neill's blistering 1991 one-shot from Apocalypse takes their savage superhero satire to its logical extreme. In a world overrun by the undead, the titular lawman hunts not just zombies but the super-powered ghouls who prey on the living—a grim, pitch-black coda to their notorious series. This single issue matters as a potent, standalone fusion of horror and Mills' trademark anti-authoritarian fury, illustrated with O'Neill's gloriously grotesque detail.
