How Loathsome #3

In "Nick," the third issue of How Loathsome, writer and artist Ted Naifeh teams up with Tristan Crane for a moody, character-driven tale set in the underground bar scene. Nick and Catherine trade stories about their respective weeks—one involving a mysterious client and unsettling companions, the other a date with a goth couple whose intentions take an unexpected turn—each moment layered with tension and quiet unease. The story unfolds with a sharp, intimate tone, rendered in Naifeh and Crane’s distinctive, atmospheric art.
