Helheim #1

From Cullen Bunn, Joëlle Jones, and Nick Filardi comes this Norse-tinged dark fantasy from Oni Press, with a cover that immediately sets a grim, atmospheric tone. A massive, scarred undead warrior dominates the foreground, glowing green energy crackling around his fists, while behind him loom an imposing robed figure, a skeletal specter, and a pale woman — a formidable and unsettling ensemble against a burnt-gold backdrop of snarling creatures. Helheim Book 1: The Witch War promises a world steeped in violence, sorcery, and the kind of brutal mythology that makes 2014 an exciting time for independent horror-fantasy comics.
