It continues the dark, visceral explorations of the Cenobites and their human pawns, featuring Pinhead and a host of other characters like Atkins, Elliott Spencer, and Sister Nikoletta as they navigate realms of pain, pleasure, and supernatural horror.
In Clive Barker's Hellraiser #6, titled "Original Sin," a Vietnam War soldier named Atkins is sent deep into a labyrinthine tunnel system with orders to eliminate the enemy. As he navigates the maze, he unknowingly triggers a ritual that summons the Cenobites, setting in motion a transformation that will forge him into the Cenobite known as Hell's Bastard Son. Written by Erik Saltzgaber and illustrated by Joe Barruso, with a cover by John Rheume, this issue blends wartime tension with the series’ signature blend of body horror and metaphysical dread.
