Babyteeth

AfterShock’s Babyteeth (2018–2022) is a darkly intimate horror series following a teenage mother whose newborn child is not entirely human, forcing her family into a desperate struggle against both supernatural forces and the government agencies that want to harness the baby’s power. Written by Donny Cates with art by Garry Brown, this two-issue run—part of a larger story—establishes a tense, emotionally charged premise that blends body horror with a fierce maternal bond. Though brief, it matters for its sharp, character-driven take on cosmic horror within the family drama framework that defined much of AfterShock’s early output.
