Manor Black #3

The third issue of Dark Horse's Manor Black leans hard into dread, with Tyler Crook's cover presenting an enormous, anguished face bathed in sickly yellow-green light — its wide, panicked eye dominating the foreground while two figures in the background appear to channel or contain a glowing, supernatural force inside a dim, pipe-lined room. Crook's painterly work gives the whole image a queasy, atmospheric menace that feels deeply unsettling in the best possible way. If this series has been on your radar, issue #3 makes a compelling case for why Manor Black belongs in your 2019 reading stack.
