*Note: This is 1-6 of a 12 part series.
A warped, black-and-white superhero fever dream from the late ’80s underground, Eddy Current follows a mentally institutionalized man who escapes during a blackout, dons a mail-order hero suit, and wanders the city trying to save the world before morning. Told in real-time across twelve hours, the comic twists classic hero mythology into something anxious, funny, bleak, and strangely human, filled with grotesque art, fractured reality, and sharp satire about sanity, obsession, and what “heroism” even means. It reads like a punk rock deconstruction of comics itself, raw, uncomfortable, imaginative, and quietly brilliant.
