Customer Reviews

Doom patrol
This is the last (at this time anyway) in the very psychedelic eat your heart out the 1960's with a hint of cheese whilst not taking it's self too seriously adult comic. The doom patrol dies and then comes back from the brink and finishes with a rather odd look at what dorathy (the half chimp half girl) would be like as an adult, heading her own doom patrol. Not a bad finish.. for the time being anyway.
