“Cemetary Requiem”

In "Cemetary Requiem," Erik Larsen delivers a raw, emotionally charged chapter of The Savage Dragon, where the hero faces a devastating personal loss as Rapture ends their relationship. With haunting visuals by Larsen on both interior and cover, the story unfolds in a tense, surreal atmosphere as a Covenant agent drops a shocking revelation—what they buried wasn’t their real child—and Dragon confronts a mind-draining leech in a final, violent act of defiance.
