Clive Barker's Hellraiser Summer Special #1
In "The Lesson," a haunting tale from Clive Barker's Hellraiser Summer Special #1 (1992), a young girl’s traumatic past resurfaces when her father, a mob boss, saves her from the Cenobites—twenty-six years after she first witnessed his brutality. Written by R. J. M. Lofficier and illustrated with chilling precision by Jorge Zaffino, this story blends psychological dread with the series’ signature body horror. The cover, by James Sherman, captures the eerie tension of a moment that lingers long after the page turns.
