Description
A HERO OUT OF HELL! The new year's most spectacular, eye-popping indie horror hit returns with an all-new chapter from retro-powered cartoonist Nick Cagnetti (Pink Lemonade) and co-creator Daniel Ziegler (Elodie)! As the deceased musician Erik Leroux journeys through an eerie underworld realm alongside the enigmatic Elizabeth, the truth of his forgotten past begins to unfold—one page at a time. But in the land of the living, danger brews as a vengeful witch named Helena and her arcane pet rabbit, Haruspex, mark Erik for destruction. But what dark grudge binds her to a man who no longer walks among the living? And how does it all tie back to Erik's long-lost love—the mysterious Katrina? Ghosts, grief, and grim revelations collide in this twisted tale of love, memory, and the shadows from the past! In the tradition of Jack Kirby's THE DEMON, Mike Allred's MADMAN, and Todd McFarlane's SPAWN, meet the next great addition to the canon of horror heroes as Cagnetti and Ziegler unleash an outrageously otherworldly comic book saga for the ages!
