Criminal Macabre: Two Red Eyes #3

Steve Niles and Kyle Hotz's hard-boiled supernatural series rolls on with this third chapter of "Two Red Eyes," brought to life on the cover by Tim Bradstreet's painterly noir atmosphere. A scarred, world-weary man — Cal McDonald himself — leans against a car beneath a blood-red Los Angeles sky, while a clawed, monstrous hand reaches toward his face in an unsettling display of uneasy alliance. Michelle Madsen's moody coloring ties together the Hollywood backdrop and the creeping dread, setting a tense, atmospheric tone that makes this 2007 Dark Horse series hard to put down.
