“The Strange Case of Billy McTaggart”

In "The Strange Case of Billy McTaggart," a chilling tale from 2015, young Billy becomes convinced that a figure outside his window is not just a neighbor—but Bonnie Shaw, a local legend said to take children whose parents have abandoned them. Written by John Lees and illustrated by Iain Laurie, with colors by Megan Wilson and letters by Colin Bell, the story unfolds with quiet dread as Billy’s warnings are dismissed, leading to a sudden disappearance that leaves his family fleeing in silence. The haunting final scene, set in a dimly lit bar, hints at a past trauma with a single, resolute vow: "Never again." Cover by Ryan Stegman.
