Babs the Black Road South #3 (of 6)

On their quest down the demon-cursed Black Road South, Babs and Izzy confront ruthless monsters, a murderous hobbit with a bondage-leaning flair, and a lineup of grotesque cosmetic-surgery oddities surrounding a narcissistic swordswoman. Is the peril worth the treasure said to await at road's end? Most certainly, as danger amplifies the pull of the prize. Written by Garth Ennis with art by Jacen Burrows, this third issue of a six-part mini follows in bold, kinetic panels that fuse horror, dark humor, and high-stakes adventure. Burrows' detailed, eerie visuals intensify the road's claustrophobic mood while Ennis delivers punchy dialogue and relentless momentum. The story deepens the series' twisted folklore and tests the duo's resolve as they edge toward the arc's finale. A mature, uncompromising fantasy-horror read that will satisfy readers who crave sharp satire amid brutal action.
