Sloth

Gilbert Hernandez, best known for his work on Love and Rockets, brings his singular, introspective style to DC's short-lived "Minx" imprint with this 2006 one-shot. Sloth follows a teenage protagonist who emerges from a year-long coma with a mysterious, supernatural lethargy, exploring themes of identity and suburban ennui through Hernandez's distinctive, expressive artwork. Though a single issue, it stands as a unique, creator-driven entry in the DC canon, showcasing Hernandez's ability to blend slice-of-life drama with a touch of the fantastic.
