About the series
In the grimy, rain-slicked streets of 1980s New York, a mysterious figure in a metal mask is brutally murdering corrupt politicians, and the city can't decide if he's a monster or a folk hero. Written by Elliott Kalan with gritty, atmospheric art by Andrea Mutti, this AfterShock series from 2021 onward follows a young woman determined to uncover the truth behind the "Maniac" as public opinion grows dangerously divided. It’s a taut, politically charged horror-noir that captures the paranoia and decay of its era while asking uncomfortable questions about justice and vigilantism.
