In "The Creature from the Black Bog!", a desperate man’s plan to eliminate his lover’s husband backfires in the most unsettling way—when the man he tried to kill shows up unharmed at his doorstep. Ben Brown’s art brings a gritty, suspenseful edge to this chilling tale, with David Gantz’s inks deepening the shadows of a mountain road and a secret that’s far from buried. George Roussos delivers a moody cover that perfectly captures the dread of a man trapped by his own deception.
