A HERO OUT OF HELL! The new year’s most spectacular, eye-popping indie horror hit returns with an all-new chapter from retro-powered cartoonist Nick Cagnetti (Pink Lemonade) and co-creator Daniel Ziegler (Elodie)!

As the deceased musician Erik Leroux journeys through an eerie underworld realm alongside the enigmatic Elizabeth, the truth of his forgotten past begins to unfold—one page at a time. But in the land of the living, danger brews as a vengeful witch named Helena and her arcane pet rabbit, Haruspex, mark Erik for destruction. But what dark grudge binds her to a man who no longer walks among the living? And how does it all more

    Some of the story beats are a little rote or predictable, but before you can think about being bored, the creators hit you with a twist or turn that flips the whole thing on its head. It is hard to remember that this creative team has very few comic credits to their name. If they are cranking out this level of quality already, just imagine what they will be able to do once they have built up some more experience. We may only be two issues in, and it is only February, but I already know that Spirit of the Shadows is going to be on my list for best books of the year. Read Full Review

    Spirit of the Shadows #2 thrives on atmosphere, style, and supernatural menace, with Helena emerging as a compelling magical threat and the underworld rendered in wildly imaginative detail. The pacing occasionally stalls, and the flashbacks retread familiar emotional ground, but the sheer visual ambition and the promise of an impending showdown keep the series intriguing and worth following.
