About the series
In this acclaimed 27-issue Image series from 2018 to 2020, writer Jeff Lemire and artist Andrea Sorrentino craft a slow-burn horror mystery set in the decaying rural town of Gideon Falls, where a reclusive young man and a troubled priest become entangled with a legendary, shifting black barn that may hold the key to a cycle of madness and violence. The series matters for its masterful use of dual timelines and Sorrentino's striking, claustrophobic page layouts, which amplify the sense of dread as reality begins to fracture.
