Hellblazer #[5]

Glenn Fabry's painted cover for this 2000 Schreiber & Leser edition sets a grim, unsettling tone — a disheveled, hollow-eyed man dominates the image, his battered face and rumpled clothing suggesting a figure who has seen the worst the world has to offer. Collecting Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's gritty work on Hellblazer under the German title Tainted Love, with the story "In der Gosse," this volume promises the dark, street-level supernatural drama the series is known for. A compelling addition to the German-language Hellblazer library.
