Grindhouse: Drive In, Bleed Out

A gleefully grimy homage to exploitation cinema, Grindhouse: Drive In, Bleed Out (2014–2015, Dark Horse) delivers eight issues of over-the-top, B-movie thrills. Writer Alex de Campi and artist Tyler Crook craft a standalone, self-contained saga that distills the raw energy of a double feature into comic form, complete with fake trailers and lurid ads. It matters as a modern love letter to the pulp aesthetic, proving that the spirit of the drive-in can thrive on the page.
