The Manhattan Projects
"What if the Manhattan Project, the government initiative that resulted in the creation of the Atomic Bomb in 1945, actually went a lot further than that? What if nuclear weapons were the least fantastic and horrifying creations those scientists came up with while they were working together? And what if that strange team of super-geniuses, soldiers and ex-Nazis were also complete and utter madmen?"  Created by Image Comics' Nick Pitarra, The Manhattan Projects is "pure mad science in comic book form" Comics Alliance
