Written by Matt Wagner. Art by Bernie Mireault. Cover by Matt Wagner. The spirits of Grendel grips the brain with violent, insane fingers and never let's go. Its latest victim, Brian Li Sung, was once a lover of Hunter Rose's granddaughter, Christine Spar. Like a viral infection, she passed the fierceness to Li Sung in the form of vengeful drive, one and the same that led Spar down the path of death. That path, paved with flagstones of vigilante murder, leads Li Sung further into his pit of Brooklyn despair. But can a visit from Regina turn him around? What about a visit from Inspector Wiggins? Yep, the tenacious, red-eyed officer just won't give up. And so, the conflict continues, as do Dark Horse's reprints of these classic Grendel stories. Featuring another great, new cover painting from creator Matt Wagner and more of the thrilling suspense that is Grendel. 32 pages, FC. Cover price $2.99.
