Gallows

Born into the dark crossroads where Clive Barker's most haunted mythologies collide, Gallows made their entrance in 1991's Hellraiser Nightbreed – Jihad #1, a Marvel Comics event that brought together the nightmarish worlds of Hellraiser and Nightbreed in one gloriously unsettling package. Created by D. G. Chichester and Paul Johnson at the dawn of the Modern Age, Gallows inhabits a corner of comics where horror reigns supreme, sharing pages with the likes of Peloquin, Aaron Boone, and the dread Baphomet himself — as fearsome a roster of company as any character could keep. With appearances spread across both Clive Barker's Night Breed and the Jihad crossover, this is a figure shaped entirely by the strange, transgressive spirit Barker brought to comics in the early '90s. Rare and atmospheric, Gallows is a genuine artifact of that brief, bold moment when Marvel leaned hard into literary horror.
