Edward Scissorhands #5

Issue five of IDW's Edward Scissorhands series delivers a wonderfully unsettling cover, with Edward and a wide-eyed companion peering over a towering, blood-spattered topiary figure whose jagged scissor-hands stretch menacingly toward the viewer — all beneath a stormy sky split by lightning. The stylized, slightly cartoonish art gives the scene an eerie storybook quality that perfectly suits the whimsical-yet-dark spirit of the source material. With creative credits from Leth, Rausch, and Simons, this 2015 IDW entry looks like a genuinely compelling chapter in Edward's continuing story.
