☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Deathsnake, Part Three," John Blackburn delivers a gritty, high-stakes climax set in the fever-dream world of Palmettoville, where tensions boil over at the Bishop Theatre as a mob demands justice over Coley’s controversial film. With the stakes rising, Coley’s desperate bid to expose the truth about Warden Jack Brady collides with a deadly family vendetta, all while the line between voodoo and reality blurs. Written, drawn, inked, and lettered by Blackburn, this intense third chapter features a cover by Blackburn that captures the story’s escalating dread.
In the third chapter of "The Deathsnake," warden Jack Brady faces a chilling turn when guard Banks delivers grim news: two convicts have escaped, their guard is bound, and Coley’s grave is empty. Before Jack can react, the ground trembles as Coley detonates explosives beneath the bridge Jack holds dear—its fate now in the hands of a man long thought buried.
Jack Brady and Banks assess the aftermath of a chaotic escape, realizing Coley’s next move isn’t toward safety in Florida—but back to Palmettoville. With the stolen evidence in hand, Coley makes a dangerous return, convinced the town holds more than just danger, and that he’ll show “THEM th’ deathsnake” before they can catch him.
In the fever-dream heat of Palmettoville, a mob gathers at the Bishop Theatre, furious over a film that stirs old wounds and new fears. As Sammy O'Hara snaps photos and Harry "Lance" Larue finds an unlikely ally in Chief Beasley, Coley races to expose the truth—only to find himself caught between voodoo, vengeance, and a justice system already poisoned. When the courthouse becomes a battleground, one man’s survival hinges on secrets older than the town itself.
