“The Night the Lights Went Out”

In "The Night the Lights Went Out," writer Garth Ennis and artist John McCrea craft a gripping, grounded tale set in a world where the sun vanishes and power fails—leaving Tommy and his friends huddled in their favorite bar, sharing raw, personal stories of brushes with death. With McCrea’s stark, expressive art and Carla Feeny’s moody coloring, the issue captures the weight of memory and fear in the dark, all under a cover by McCrea that mirrors the story’s intimate, shadowed tone.
