Doom Patrol DC, 2nd series, 1987-1995, Issues 19-25

"Is this real or isn't it?" It's a simple question, but it isn't a simple world-- not anymore. Not for the members of the Doom Patrol, the World's Strangest Heroes. Originally conceived in the 1960s, The Doom Patrol was reborn in 1989, bursting out of the utterly unique imagination of writer Grant Morrison and heralding a new direction for American comics. Following that direction, the World's Strangest Heroes have left behind almost every vestige of normality. Though they are super-powered beings, and their foes are bent on world domination, all that is conventional ends there. Shunned as freaks and outcasts, and tempered by loss and insanity, the Doom Patrol faces threats mystifying in nature, corrupted beyond any sensible motives-- threats that must, at all costs, be defeated. --p.[4] of cover
