Event Horizon: Dark Descent #5

The spectacular finale of the scariest sci-fi story to date, Event Horizon: Dark Descent #5 closes this chilling miniseries with a crescendo of terror and wonder. The spaceship Event Horizon has already tasted Hell; can it return? After their captain’s death, the remaining crew make a last-ditch bid to destroy the ship’s gravity drive—perhaps the only weapon capable of hurting the malevolent Paimon. Yet aboard the hull, an angelic presence stirs, turning fear into a haunting mystery that tests faith, loyalty, and resolve. Writer Christian Ward threads claustrophobic dread with sprawling cosmic horror, while Tristan Jones delivers stark, immersive art that makes every panel feel perilously close to the void. This 32-page finale brings the crew’s saga to a climactic close, balancing nightmare imagery with dark wonder as Darick Robertson’s cover lends a stark, unforgettable face to the final chapter.
