Man of Rust

    (Blackthorne, 1986)
™ and © 1986 Cliff MacGillivray and Rich Burchett

While at first this appears to be nothing more than a parody of DC Comics landmark Man of Steel mini-series, readers delving between the lines are treated to gem of satirical delight. Writer Cliff MacGillivray sets his sights on the jugular and never lets go. The subject of his satire is not, as it would first appear, that pinnacle that all super-heroes strive for, but, in fact, the corporation that would arbitrarily alter a legend. From beginning to end Rick Burchet delivers hilarious images in true Mad magazine fashion.
