Cheval Noir (1989) #43
Cover by Eric Shanower.
Die-hard fans and newcomers alike take note: "Randy the Skeleton," by Aidan Potts and Ian Carney, debuts this issue, as Randy -- dedicated hedonist and fervent collector of "hyperkitsch" -- teaches the orphans a lesson in "TV Shoplifting"! Nicole Hollander's "Sylvia" reveals an unexpected admissions requirement for heaven, while Cailleteau & Vatine's "Stan Pulsar" reappears with a no-holds-barred look at alien encounters and Rock 'n' Roll. Meanwhile, the Michael Cherkas, Larry Hancock, John van Bruggen classic, "Suburban Nightmares: Secrets," continues to weave its twisted tale of life in the '50s 'burbs; and Masashi Tanaka's "Demon" finds himself hunted from unexpected quarters.
