Leave on the Light

A single-issue horror comic from Second Sight Publishing, Leave on the Light (2021) is a self-contained story that taps into the primal childhood fear of the dark. The issue follows a young boy whose nightly ritual of leaving a lamp on takes a terrifying turn when the light begins to behave in ways that defy explanation. Known for its moody, atmospheric art and a tight, unsettling script, this debut issue made an immediate impression as a focused, one-and-done fright. It matters as a strong example of modern indie horror done right, proving that a single issue can deliver a complete, chilling experience.
