☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects issues from the 1990s Marvel series based on Clive Barker's Hellraiser mythos, focusing on the Cenobite Pinhead and his human origin as Elliott Spencer, alongside the character Ron Ringwood. It continues the dark, horror-themed narratives that expand the Hellraiser universe beyond the films, blending supernatural terror with psychological dread.
In "On the Subway Part One," Clive Barker's Hellraiser #20 delivers a chilling descent into psychological dread as Arthur, newly employed at a mental asylum, stumbles upon a young girl confined behind an enigmatic lock. Written by Del Stone Jr. and brought to life with haunting precision by Marc Hempel—whose art, inks, and lettering shape the issue’s oppressive atmosphere—this story unfolds with quiet menace. The cover by Tristan Schane captures the unsettling tone, setting the stage for a mystery that lingers just beyond the edge of understanding.
In Clive Barker's Hellraiser #20, Arthur—a new attendant at a remote mental asylum—discovers a young girl behind a locked door, her presence marked by a single, unsettling peephole. As he tries to understand the cryptic mechanism sealing her in, the silence of the asylum begins to feel less like emptiness and more like waiting.
