Dark Horse Presents #126

Dark Horse Presents #126 spotlights The Nocturnals with a brooding Halloween-night cover by Dan Brereton, Stan Manoukian, and Vince Roucher — two eerie figures, a masked, caped man with a skull emblem and a green-skinned woman in a wide-brimmed hat, stand amid shadowy woods clutching a grinning jack-o'-lantern. The atmosphere is pure autumnal dread, rendered with rich, painterly depth that makes the duo feel genuinely dangerous beneath their trick-or-treat trappings. At 48 pages, the issue also promises backup strips including "Metalfer" and "Starship Troopers," making it a generously packed anthology from 1997.
