Charun

Born into the darkest corners of Clive Barker's shared horror universe, Charun made their entrance in 1991's Hellraiser Nightbreed - Jihad #1, conjured by the creative team of D. G. Chichester and Paul Johnson during comics' Copper/Modern Age. This is a character who keeps genuinely harrowing company — sharing pages with the likes of Pinhead, Elliott Spencer, Leviathan, and Gehenna across Marvel's ambitious foray into Barker's mythology. Charun's appearances span Hellraiser Nightbreed - Jihad, Pinhead, and the lore-rich Clive Barker's Book of the Damned: A Hellraiser Companion, making them a figure woven into the deeper fabric of this horror universe rather than its fringes. Rare in the catalog and steeped in that early-'90s horror comics atmosphere, Charun is a rewarding discovery for any collector drawn to the strange, the transgressive, and the beautifully macabre.
