About the series
In this three-issue IDW miniseries from 2010–2011, writer Steve Niles and legendary artist Bernie Wrightson resurrect the gothic horror tradition with a tale of a reclusive, monstrous doctor who specializes in the occult and the undead. Set in a shadow-drenched Victorian world, it’s a moody, atmospheric collaboration that showcases Wrightson’s signature macabre linework and Niles’s knack for blending dark fantasy with human pathos. A brief but potent meeting of two horror comics icons, Doc Macabre stands as a late-career highlight for Wrightson and a must-read for fans of classic monster storytelling.
