Afterlife with Archie #8

A massive, swirling vortex dominates the cover of this 2015 Archie Horror entry, its hypnotic spiral centered on a single enormous eye that looms over a snow-covered town below — unsettling, atmospheric, and rendered entirely in Francesco Francavilla's signature burnt-orange and black palette. The image feels less like a comic cover and more like a waking nightmare, perfectly suited to a chapter subtitled "A Ghost Story." Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and Francavilla continue pushing Riverdale into genuinely eerie territory, and this issue promises all-new chilling tales to match that haunting cover.
