Green title version. Stories: Clive Barker. Art: P. Craig Russell; Scott Hampton. Painted cover: John Bolton. Clive Barker's nightmarish vision has changed the face of horror forever. Now Barker does for comics what he's already done for film, stage and fiction--stretching the very boundaries of the medium itself to bring forth the lyrical and the brutal. P. Craig Russell brings one of Barker's most famous short stories to life - in "Human Remains," a creature bathes in blood to steal the face and soul of a beautiful prostitute. Then, Scott Hampton takes his acclaimed brush to work on "Pig Blood Blues," a tale of human mutilation and strange love in a reform school disintegrating into madness. 64 pages. Cover price $6.95.
