PALE KNIGHT #5 (OF 6) (MR)

In the gripping fifth installment of the six-part series, "The Pale Knight," set in the tumultuous year of 1348 England, the air is thick with the stench of death and deceit. As the Black Plague ravages the land, the enigmatic Pale Knight bears a bubo, a harbinger of the deadly disease. Within the walls of Sir Maurice de Beauchamp's household, the plague's shadow looms large, while Lady Strange's guests drown their fears in wine, oblivious to the encroaching doom. Amidst this chaos, Aaron of Albi stumbles upon a sinister revelation: the most lethal poison may not be the plague itself, but the treachery of man. Crafted by the masterful Peter Milligan, with evocative art by Val Rodrigues and a haunting cover by Nick Marinkovich, this mature-rated comic delves into the darkest corners of human nature.
