Sons of the Devil #6

From Image Comics in 2016, Sons of the Devil #6 presents one of the series' most unsettling cover images: a long-haired, bearded man in a red jacket is surrounded — almost consumed — by a crowd of children and young faces, one infant among them staring out with a chilling red eye. Writer Brian Buccellato and artist Toni Infante craft an atmosphere that's equal parts cult dread and quiet menace, where the smiling faces ringing this central figure make the scene feel more threatening, not less. If you've been following this dark, psychological thriller, this issue promises to deepen the unease considerably.
