In their last CASTING FROM THE WRECKAGE episode of 2017, Elise and Dave move from the ridiculous Adventure of the Beard Hunter to Liza Radley's sublime emergence in an impossibly real place. Like issues #29/#30, these two issues show Morrison expanding the scope of his run on the title, veering off into Dave Sim-style industry-and-superhero subculture satire in #45 (without the 1991 Sim's viewpoint, thankfully) and then reconnecting with the core Doom Patrolers in #46 at a more affecting level than ever before. We get some more of that candleguy, another clock-faced motherfucker, Dave's favourite Simon Bisley cover, and some ominous quasi-revelations about the chief.  

 

Theme song:

The Revelators - "Don't Look at me When I'm Looking at You"
