The Dregs

A single-issue comic from Black Mask Studios, The Dregs (2017–present) is a dark, satirical exploration of homelessness and gentrification in a near-future Los Angeles. Written by Zac Thompson and Lonnie Nadler with art by Eric Zawadzki, this one-shot uses a noir-infused mystery to critique social apathy and urban decay. Its unflinching, politically charged storytelling marks it as a potent example of the publisher's commitment to genre fiction with a sharp, contemporary edge.
