The Steam Man

Joe R. Lansdale and Mark Alan Miller team up with artist Piotr Kowalski for this Dark Horse one-shot from 2016, reimagining the classic "Steam Man of the Prairies" as a grim, alternate-history Western. It introduces a mechanical marvel built by a brilliant but haunted inventor, set against a backdrop of frontier tension and supernatural menace. Though a single issue, it stands as a compact, atmospheric tale that merges steampunk invention with Lansdale's signature brand of Texas Gothic horror.
