Clive Barker's Hellraiser #5

Pinhead looms in silhouette against a blood-red and shadow-black background, hands pressed together in a grotesque parody of prayer — a quietly unsettling image that carries more dread than any overtly violent pose could. Arrayed beneath him are four cryptic Hell-sigils: a skull, a thorned eye, a horned mask, and an interlocking curved symbol, suggesting a mythology far deeper than any single issue can contain. Boom! Studios' 2011 continuation of Clive Barker's world delivers the kind of atmospheric, mature horror that fans of the franchise will find hard to put down.
