DOOM PATROL #1

DC COMICS
(W) Darcy Van Poelgeest (A/CA) Niko Henrichon

The Doom Patrol is broke. Adopting a heroes-for-hire business model to stave off financial and emotional ruin, the team finds itself responding to a simple case—a missing cat. But when this case proves to be far from simple, the world's strangest heroes find themselves pulled into a truly out-of-this-world situation! The visionary team of Eisner Award-winning writer Darcy Van Poelgeest (Little Bird) and legendary artist Niko Henrichon (Pride of Baghdad) ushers the Doom Patrol into the DC Next Level.
