Zenith

Grant Morrison and Steve Yeowell’s Zenith (1988–1990, Titan) is a five-issue British superhero series that deconstructs the genre with sharp wit and dark satire. It follows a jaded, drug-addled pop star with superpowers, forced to confront his past and a generation of faded World War II-era heroes. Morrison’s characteristically dense, psychedelic writing meets Yeowell’s clean, expressive linework, making this a cult touchstone in the late-’80s British comics renaissance. Its cynical take on celebrity, power, and nostalgia remains a sharp, influential counterpoint to the mainstream.
