Grendel: War Child #3

In "Chapter 43: Devil in the Bayou," Prime fights his way through the Louisiana swamps, first battling a monstrous alligator to rescue Jupiter, then facing a relentless swarm of Red Devils. With the bayou closing in, he and Jupiter find unexpected aid from a mysterious voodoo woman. Written by Matt Wagner and illustrated by Patrick McEown, with inks by Matt Wagner and Monty Sheldon, and vibrant colors by Bernie Mireault and Kathryn Delaney, this 1992 Dark Horse issue delivers a gritty, atmospheric showdown. The cover, a striking piece by Simon Bisley, captures the eerie, swamp-drenched tension of the story.
