Briar: Night's Terror #3

The sky cracks open, and the end is nigh! The Briar series continues as Roop ventures through a hellish Underworld, where an old friend tests his sense of belonging and purpose. Back above, Briar’s allies Spider, Stinger, and Lead-leg race to outpace peril, only for Briar to be captured by a treacherous device. Across the landscape, Grendrid’s forces falter against the Norrish horde, forcing a tense retreat toward the Crooked Castle. This issue unfolds as a dark fantasy epic that blends high-stakes danger with mythic imagery. Eisner-nominated writer Christopher Cantwell lends his signature blend of mythic storytelling and character-driven drama, while Alex Lins delivers kinetic, richly detailed art that brings the Underworld and Briar’s world to brutal life. Bruno Büll’s inking and design complete the look of a reimagined fairy tale for modern audiences.
