Flinch #10

This tenth installment of Vertigo's horror anthology Flinch arrives in March 2000 with a cover by Edvin Biuković that's quietly unsettling in the best possible way — a lone man stands inside a city phone booth making a late-night call, rendered in stark black-and-white while the surrounding urban windows glow with amber silhouettes of figures in disturbing, chaotic poses. The contrast between that isolated, ordinary moment at the phone and the surrounding city teeming with shadowy menace gives the image a creeping dread that suits the anthology's tone perfectly. Brian Azzarello and Danijel Žeželj bring their talents to the interior story "Last Call," promising the kind of dark, atmospheric storytelling that makes Flinch such a satisfying read for mature horror fans.
