The Luck in the Head

A singular, haunting one-shot from Dark Horse in 1993, The Luck in the Head adapts M. John Harrison’s eerie short story of the same name. Illustrated with Ian Miller’s characteristically intricate, nightmarish linework, it follows a traveler through a decaying, surreal cityscape where luck is a tangible, sought-after commodity. This collaboration between a celebrated literary voice and a visionary fantasy artist stands as a unique, atmospheric artifact of early 90s alternative comics.
