Fall of Cthulhu #6

"The Gathering, Part 1 of 5: Sysyphyx" delivers a chilling start to a five-part descent into cosmic dread, with writer Michael Alan Nelson and artist Greg Scott crafting a tense arctic expedition that spirals into something far beyond human comprehension. When a group of men uncover a mysterious ship and a sealed trunk under orders to leave it untouched, the sole survivor, Connor, recounts the tale in a dimly lit bar—only to set off a chain of events that culminates in a terrifying transformation. The cover by Vatche Mavlian captures the story’s creeping dread, while Joël Séguin’s colors and Ed Dukeshire’s lettering deepen the atmosphere of isolation and unease.
