Number One

In Gary Scott Beatty's Number One (2022–present), a mysterious comic from Source Point Press, a struggling writer discovers that the fictional hero he created has somehow become real—and is now hunting him. With moody, noir-infused art by Aaron Warner, this single-issue debut explores the dangerous blur between creator and creation, setting up a tense psychological thriller. It's a compact, self-contained story that punches above its page count, offering a clever meta-twist on superhero tropes.
