The Tower Chronicles: Geisthawk

In this four-issue series from Legendary (2012–2013), writer Matt Wagner and artist Simon Bisley introduce a gritty, supernatural thriller centered on a modern-day monster hunter. The story follows a man bound by a dark pact, using his unique abilities to track and eliminate otherworldly threats across a shadowy, myth-infused America. Bisley's visceral, painted artwork brings a raw, brutal energy to Wagner's noir-tinged narrative, making this a standout collaboration between two celebrated creators. It matters as a bold, self-contained exploration of urban fantasy and horror from a boutique publisher.
