- Synopsis
- Explore this fantastical tale. Down-on-his-luck tramp Doughface Jack has been shot while trying to escape from a cop and a train brakeman--causing him to fall from the train and crush his skull. A local doctor performs emergency surgery to save Doughface's life, patching up and stitching together the two halves of his brain and then sealing the cranium with a silver bowl.While Doughface miraculously survives, he also acquires phenomenal mental powers: he can instantaneously heal or kill, or make the old young. Terrified of his newfound abilities, Doughface flees the university where he was being kept for examination, only to cross paths with a vengeful and beautiful woman bound to reach the ultimate seat of power--using Jack to destroy anything that gets in her way! "...a series not to be missed by any true pulp-fiction fan." --Comics Buyers Guide
