Written by Matt Wagner. The Devil's influence spreads throughout the city like ripples on a pond, leaving a path of shattered dreams and destroyed lives in its wake. Only it's not just the Mafia, hitmen, and urban scum who feel Grendel's heat. Before long, those on the periphery -- the doctors, lawyer, and hotel employees -- are also pulled into the Devil's sinister web. Meanwhile, Grendel's alter-ego Hunter Rose finds his relationship with his adopted ward Stacy slipping through his bloody fingers. He may be able to eradicate his enemies, but he's helpless to hang on to those he loves. Wagner and company continue their exploration into Grendel's twisted psyche and the seductive pull it holds over all who encounter it as, once again, Wagner's razor-sharp scripts are brought to life by an outstanding line-up of comics' hottest artists. 48 pages, B&W&Red. Cover price $4.99.
