ABSOLUTE MARTIAN MANHUNTER (2025) #8 CVR A JAVIER RODRIGUEZ

Deniz Camp has solidified his reign as the hottest newbie of the past decade, especially with 2025’s ABSOLUTE MARTIAN MANHUNTER. Match that with Javier Rodríguez’s exhibition of trippy, out-of-this-world images, tailor made to bring forward a voice of tormented brainf*ckery unlike any other on the market today. Having misinterpreted the purpose of a certain interactive element in #8, the story rewards the observant reader. Timely, too, Camp leans towards outspoken commentary (many of his titles in fact) on current balances of power. Yes, these are the funny books. Some are more intelligent than you think, though.
