Silent Hill Downpour: Anne's Story #2

The rain-soaked fog of Silent Hill closes in again with this second issue of Anne's Story, IDW's 2014 tie-in to the Downpour game. The cover, illustrated by Tristan Jones, presents a deeply unsettling figure in a gas mask and blood-stained clothing, clutching a prison booking placard from the Ryan State Corrections Facility, Pendleton — a detail that grounds the horror in something hauntingly institutional. With writing by Tom Waltz and colors by Michael Spicer drenching the scene in grey and crimson, this issue promises the kind of psychological dread that makes Silent Hill such compelling territory for comics.
