Gifts of the Night #4

The concluding chapter of Vertico's Gifts of the Night arrives with a cover by John Bolton that's genuinely hard to look away from — a bald, menacing figure looms enormous against a stormy yellow sky crackling with lightning, his clawed hands raised as a ruined village crumbles in the darkness below him. Bolton's painted atmosphere is brooding and beautifully unsettling, perfectly suited to the mature-readers tone Paul Chadwick and he have built across this four-issue series. If you've been following this collaboration, issue #4 of 4 is where it all comes to a head.
