Mike Deodato's Ramthar

Mike Deodato Sr. wrote and his son, Mike Deodato Jr., drew this single-issue fantasy series from Caliber Press, launched in 1996. It introduced the barbarian hero Ramthar, a character that showcased the younger Deodato's emerging artistic style before he became a major Marvel artist. Though brief, the issue stands as an early collaboration between the Deodatos and a snapshot of the creator-owned comics landscape of the mid-1990s.
