Description
One of the most innovative comics ever, Doom Patrol - a super-team comprised of freaks, misfits, and madmen - took the superhero world into a new age of strangeness! What will be the final fate of the anarchic and bizarre Brotherhood of Dada? And will the sinister Candlemaker continue on his rise to overpower everyone in his path, or will Dorothy Spinner finally take back control? This fifth volume also includes a tribute issue 'And men shall call him...hero!' by the legendary Jack Kirby, as well as a new cover by Brian Bolland. Writer Grant Morrison ("Final Crisis"), with artists including Richard Case ("Shade") continue their classic, mind-bending run!
