Vortech the Wonder Mule

From 1996 to the present, Black Peke has published just two issues of Vortech the Wonder Mule, a quirky, creator-owned comic written and drawn by Michael (Mike) Halbleib. The series introduces a mule who gains incredible powers, blending absurdist humor with classic superhero tropes in Halbleib’s distinctive, offbeat style. Its enduring cult appeal lies in its sheer oddity—a low-key, personal project that stands out for its charmingly weird premise and the singular vision of its creator.
