Bone Orchard: Tenement #2

The second chapter of Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino's Bone Orchard Mythos series arrives with a cover that's all quiet dread — a darkened hand outstretched, cradling a single key etched with an unsettling symbol, set against a deep, blood-red backdrop with a drain lurking in the corner. Sorrentino's stark, atmospheric linework (colored with characteristic intensity by Dave Stewart) turns something as mundane as a key into an object that feels genuinely ominous. If this series has your attention, issue two promises to keep tightening the grip.
