Hourman #8 (1999), written by Tom Peyer with art by Rags Morales, is part of the "Day of Judgment" crossover event, featuring Snapper Carr defending Happy Harbor from demons while Hourman is away, using cheesecake as his unlikely weapon against a demon named Torture. The issue, titled "A Week with No Hourman," focuses on Snapper's struggle to cope with the demonic invasion and his past guilt, culminating in a bizarre confrontation where he offers cheesecake to a demon, who surprisingly enjoys it.
