Label #4669675020

Limited 1 for 5 Retailer Incentive Variant Cover. Written by Cullen Bunn. Art by Marika Cresta. Cover by James Stokoe. A hard rain is falling on Sieverville Correctional Prison for Women. As the river rises and its banks overflow, the same walls that are keeping the prisoners inside the fortress-like structure are failing to keep the water out. With that water comes something else. Something deadly. What was once outside is now inside, and the prisoners and guards will have to find a way free, because if the water doesn’t get them, the monsters will. In this terrifying new horror series from Cullen Bunn (The Sixth Gun, Harrow County) and Marika Cresta (Dr. Aphra) readers will follow a group of inmates as they attempt to traverse the flood waters while also avoiding both the very real monsters that are swimming beneath the surface and the proverbial monsters from their lives before incarceration that lurk inside themselves.This special variant boasts an exclusive cover by James Stokoe (Orc Stain, Orphan and the Five Beasts)!
