SEE THE ELEPHANT
Story by Starkings, Art by Moritat, Cover by Ladrönn

They were genetically engineered to be suprahuman weapons of mass destruction, but now they must walk amongst the people they were created to destroy. Ebony Hide is one of them; an Elephantman. Even when he is befriended by a small girl, Hide is still haunted by his past and is forced to recognize that suspicion and contempt will always be his constant companions.
