Sports Is Hell

In Sports Is Hell (2020–present, Koyama Press), writer-artist Ben Passmore crafts a blistering, satirical one-shot that mashes up supernatural horror with the cutthroat world of professional sports. Set in a near-future where a mysterious, otherworldly fog has transformed a struggling minor-league baseball team into monstrous, media-sensationalized superstars, the comic skewers capitalism, fandom, and the absurdity of modern entertainment. Passmore’s raw, expressionistic art and sharp dialogue give the story a punk-rock energy, making this a singular, caustic commentary on how far people will go for a win. It’s a must-read for anyone who appreciates comics that blend social critique with wild, genre-bending imagination.
