Criminal Macabre: The Third Child #4

The conclusion of The Third Child arrives with a cover by Justin Erickson that's genuinely unsettling — a trench-coated, dual-pistol-wielding figure strides forward beneath dark wings, while an eerily blank-eyed face looms behind him and two floating, hollow-eyed infants dominate the blood-red background above. Steve Niles and Christopher Mitten bring their four-issue arc to a close with this 2014 Dark Horse release, and the imagery promises the kind of supernatural noir dread the series does so well. If you've followed Cal McDonald's world this far, this final chapter looks like it delivers exactly the grim payoff you've been waiting for.
