Kill Shakespeare #2
In "Something Wicked This Way Comes," Hamlet makes a dangerous pact to resurrect his father, aligning with Richard while shadows of betrayal loom—especially in the form of Iago, who clings to him like a whisper. As nightfall brings a raid by the Prodigals, Falstaff seizes Hamlet, pulling him from the war band’s path. Written by Conor McCreery and Anthony Del Col, with art by Andy Belanger and colors by Ian Herring, this issue blends political intrigue and dark magic in a world where Shakespeare’s characters are trapped in their own tragic stories. The cover by Kagan McLeod captures the eerie tension with striking, gothic detail.
