About the series
In the wake of the early '90s comics boom, Malibu Comics launched Sludge, a 12-issue series that ran from 1993 to 1994. The title, most frequently written by Steve Gerber and Aaron Lopresti, with art by Lopresti, Robb Phipps, and Walter Simonson, explored the grim transformation of a man into a creature of living muck. This series stands as a dark, character-driven entry in Malibu's superhero line, blending body horror with Gerber's signature offbeat social commentary.
