Shadow Roads #1

A brooding, blue-cloaked figure dominates this striking cover, her pale face framed by flowing golden hair as skeletal, clawed hands reach in from all sides — an immediate signal that Shadow Roads deals in dark folklore and supernatural menace. Cullen Bunn and Brian Hurtt bring their combined storytelling instincts to this 2019 Oni Press series, with A.C. Zamudio and Carlos M. Zamudio delivering cover art awash in deep teals and sulfurous yellows that feel genuinely otherworldly. If you're drawn to atmospheric horror with an eye-catching visual sensibility, this first volume is a compelling place to start.
