EC Catacomb of Torment #1
Description
BEHOLD: A BLOODY NEW ONGOING SERIES! Out of the ashes of EPITAPHS FROM THE ABYSS, we usher THE TORMENTOR—a new horror host with an unhealthy interest in human anatomy—into the shadow-strewn halls of EC Comics history for our next monthly horror anthology! Hold onto your head (if it’s still attached) . . . because no one escapes THE CATACOMB OF TORMENT! For Her Royal Travesty of Pain's first request: Master storytellers John Arcudi (B.P.R.D.) & Tonci Zonjic (Black Hammer: Skulldigger & Skeleton Boy), Matt Kindt (BRZRKR) & David Lapham (Stray Bullets), and Marguerite Bennett (Batwoman) & Dan McDaid (Shazam!) each take turns manning the rack and turning the red-hot irons for three all-new and blisteringly brutal tales of mayhem and malice in the undying EC tradition! Plus, as an added bonus: A surprise classic from the EC vaults, painstakingly remastered and newly restored to its original coloring. The critics are already saying, “This is literal torture” and “Please make it stop!” Pick up this fearful 40-PAGE FIRST ISSUE—and the Tormentor might just consider letting them go!
