The Bad Eggs

From 1996 to 1997, Acclaim/Valiant published this four-issue miniseries by writer Bob Layton and artist Don Perlin, a focused character-driven story that explores the fallout of a high-tech, genetically engineered crime family. The series takes a gritty, intimate look at the dysfunctional dynamics within a group of super-powered siblings, blending dark humor with family drama. Though short, The Bad Eggs stands as a distinctive Valiant-era experiment, showcasing Layton and Perlin’s knack for mixing sci-fi concepts with relatable, flawed characters.
