House of Slaughter #15

The Butcher's Return" reaches its fifth and penultimate chapter in this 2023 entry from BOOM! Studios, and the painted cover by Mateus Manhanini says everything about the brutal toll this arc has taken — a bloodied young man kneels amid rocky rubble, his torn shirt soaked red, head bowed beneath a fractured geometric structure bathed in eerie amber light. It's a striking, painterly image that feels both exhausted and quietly devastating. Tate Brombal and Antonio Fuso's creative team delivers what promises to be a punishing chapter in one of horror comics' most unrelenting ongoing series.
