This is a tough one, because you're asking me to think back to the year 1989.

I'm really racking my brain here and I think I've got it narrowed down to three possible culprits. It was either:

An issue of Archie Comics Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures. I couldn't tell you what issue or what was happening in the story, but I do recall Raphael being all in black (which I presume was a parody of Spider-Man wearing all black) and the giant floating head called Cudley the Cowlick.... Yeah, those Archie Comics Ninja Turtle books were kind of weird.

It might have been an old issue of the Transformers Vol 1. The only one I can recall having as a kid was because it had a ton of characters being killed by Starscream.

Possibly an issue of the Slimer comic (as in the green ghost from Ghostbusters. This comic was based on the Slimer spin-off of the Real Ghostbusters cartoon) published by NOW! Comics. Quite sure I had the first issue.

Then again... It might have been these two comics about Moses that I got back when my parents made me go to Sunday school as a kid. As much as I disliked being forced to go to church, I remember liking one of the comics because of the rather graphic depictions of the Plagues of Egypt.... I remember one time this important priest came to the church.. and for whatever reasons I brought these comics with me to the service. Afterwards this guy was greeting everyone as they exited the church. When it came to my family's turn, I enthusiastically showed him my favorite part of that comic. Which was about the 6th plague, which for those who don't was a plague of boils. That poor priest probably thought I was a disturbed little boy.
