Rick Veitch's Bratpack

In 2018, IDW brought back Rick Veitch's Bratpack, a sharp, satirical deconstruction of the teen sidekick archetype that originally ran in the early 1990s. This single-issue revival revisits Veitch's unflinching look at the dark, exploitative underbelly of the superhero genre, told through the eyes of its most disposable characters. A cult-classic provocation, it remains a vital, uncomfortable critique of the industry's tropes, anchored entirely by Veitch's singular, uncompromising vision.
