Doom Patrol #4 – NM – 2004 (DC)

NM — Bagged and boarded.

The Antarctic arc deepens as the team faces a horrific ancient species threatening a lost scientific expedition — Byrne leans into creature horror with the kind of high-stakes rescue premise the original series did best. Nudge's exclusion from the mission adds an interesting internal tension to the team dynamic worth following.
