The Low, Low Woods #6

Two figures face each other in unsettling near-symmetry on Sam Wolfe Connelly's cover — their features lit by an eerie molten glow, eyes burning amber as something dark and liquid cascades between them against a blood-red sky and silhouetted treeline below. It's a striking, deeply atmospheric image that captures exactly the kind of folk-horror dread Carmen Maria Machado, artist Dani, and colorist Tamra Bonvillain have been building throughout this Joe Hill's Hill House Comics series. Issue six, "Bells to Rest, Lambs to Slaughter," also includes chapter twenty-seven of Sea Dogs — making this a generous and genuinely unsettling read.
