Criminal Macabre: Two Red Eyes #4

The penultimate chapter of Criminal Macabre: Two Red Eyes arrives with a Tim Bradstreet cover that sets an unsettling, noir-drenched tone — a gaunt, grey-skinned figure with glowing red eyes dominates the foreground in a dark suit, while a man gripping a pistol struggles in the murky industrial background behind him. Steve Niles and Kyle Hotz bring their signature blend of hard-boiled detective fiction and monster horror to this 2007 Dark Horse series, with Michelle Madsen's atmospheric coloring lending the whole thing a cold, shadowy dread. If you've been following Cal McDonald's latest nightmare, this fourth installment looks every bit as tense as the story promises.
