Eliot Carroll

Eliot Carroll is an NSA agent who travels to the small town of Buckaroo, Oregon—infamous for producing a disproportionate number of serial killers—to investigate its dark secret, kicking off the central mystery of the horror series Nailbiter.

A creature of the Modern Age and the unsettling world of Image Comics' Nailbiter, Eliot Carroll made his entrance in the landmark first issue of 2014, brought to life by the creative team of Joshua Williamson, Mike Henderson, and Wes Craig. He moves through one of indie comics' most talked-about horror mysteries, sharing pages with the likes of Edward Warren, Sheriff Crane, and the chilling Nailbiter himself. With appearances stretching across Nailbiter and its Image Firsts showcase edition, Carroll is woven into the fabric of a series that announced itself as something genuinely different — and for fans who love their comics dark, atmospheric, and steeped in dread, getting to know him means diving into one of the Modern Age's most compelling thriller runs.
