In "The Deadly Book," a chilling tale from The CBLDF Presents: Liberty #nn, Scott finds himself in a tense, unsettling situation when he’s asked to help the Governor move a series of empty fish tanks to his office. As the Governor reveals his unsettling plan to fill them with horrors—starting with Scott’s own head—his calm demeanor hides a growing dread. Written by Robert Kirkman and illustrated with stark precision by Charlie Adlard, with colors by Cliff Rathburn and letters by Rus Wooton, the issue’s cover by Paul Pope captures the story’s eerie, foreboding tone.
In "Barren Ground," a demon long imprisoned awakens in a world that no longer fears or believes in divine authority, finding the very idea of free thought—especially on matters of faith and love—more alien and repulsive than any dungeon. The story explores the dissonance between ancient terror and modern indifference, as the creature confronts a reality where its power is no longer feared, only dismissed.
Chris Giarrusso shares a brief, funny moment at a comic convention with an enthusiastic fan who gushes over Mini Marvels—only to vanish when Chris hints that G-Man might be right up that fan’s alley.
In a quiet moment of uneasy cooperation, Scott assists the Governor in relocating a series of large fish tanks to his office. As the weight of the tanks settles, the Governor reveals his unsettling vision: filling them with horrors to fortify his resolve. When Scott presses him on what kind of horrors he has in mind, the Governor’s calm reply sends a chill—his first choice might just be Scott’s own head.
