Usher of the Dead

In the tradition of gothic horror, Usher of the Dead (2022–present, Blood Moon Comics) follows a grim ferryman charged with guiding souls to the afterlife, only to find his own past haunting him across two issues. Artists Mary Land and Samir Simao bring a shadow-drenched, atmospheric vision to this macabre meditation on duty and redemption. A concise, moody entry into modern horror comics, it distills existential dread into a tight, visually striking package.
