PLASTIC MAN ON THE LAM
Writer/Artist: Kyle Baker
Publisher: DC Comics
Release Date: March 2025
Comics' most pliable hero takes the spotlight in this offbeat book by critically acclaimed creator Kyle Baker. Watch as Plas—with the help of sidekick Woozy Winks—gets into all sorts of trouble, as his not-so-innocent past as "Eel" O'Brian comes back to haunt him. Our hero is framed for a crime he didn't commit, and now he's on the lam.
