Black-Eyed Kids #[nn]

Two unsettling children stare out from a stark red-and-shadow cover, their dark, hollow eyes conveying a quiet dread that is far more chilling than any overt horror. Joe Pruett and Szymon Kudrański's B.E.K.: Black Eyed Kids taps into one of modern folklore's most enduring urban legends, and this 2018 Snorgleux Editions release channels that creepiness with restrained, atmospheric artwork that lets the imagery speak for itself. If you appreciate horror that gets under your skin through stillness rather than spectacle, this one belongs on your shelf.
