“A Special Plea from Uncle Creepy”

Dark Horse's anthology horror magazine rides the subway straight into nightmare territory with this unsettling issue — the cover by Julian Totino Tedesco depicts a hooded figure hunched in a graffiti-tagged train car, its face obscured by darkness and writhing tentacles, equal parts mundane and deeply wrong. The tagline "Next Stop: Terror!" perfectly captures that creeping dread of something monstrous hiding in plain sight. Inside, the "cruel cacophonies" are conducted by a remarkable lineup including the legendary pairing of writer Archie Goodwin and artist Gene Colan, making this a genuinely compelling addition to Dark Horse's revival of illustrated horror.
