Dylan Dog #[7]

Dylan Dog faces something vast and deeply unsettling in "Avgrunden" — a Swedish-language edition rendered all the more atmospheric by Lars Krantz's striking cover art, which plunges the nightmare investigator into a pitch-black void populated by monstrous deep-sea creatures. Dylan stands tense at center, red collar sharp against the darkness, while enormous fanged beasts loom above and a ghoulish face emerges from the shadows beside him. With writing from Tiziano Sclavi and Magda Balsamo and interior art by Giampiero Casertano, this 2014 Ades Media release delivers the brooding dread that makes Dylan Dog such a compelling corner of horror comics.
