The Hanged Man

A short-lived but potent two-issue series from Caliber Press in 1998, The Hanged Man pairs writer Alan Grant with artist Arthur Ranson for a grim, psychological crime thriller. The story follows a tormented detective investigating a series of brutal murders linked to the tarot card of its title, blending supernatural dread with hard-boiled noir. Though brief, it stands as a striking example of Grant and Ranson’s collaborative ability to create dense, atmospheric horror within the independent comics landscape of the late 1990s.
