A Walk Through Hell #1
(W) Garth Ennis (A) Goran Sudzuka (CA) Andy Clarke
So these two FBI agents walk into a warehouse...
Special Agents Shaw and McGregor handle the routine cases nowadays, which is just the way Shaw likes it. She's pushing 40, a borderline burnout, the ghastly memories of her last investigation still clinging like shadows. McGregor is younger, more dedicated, hanging onto some measure of idealism whatever the world might throw at him.
When two fellow agents go missing inside a Long Beach warehouse, Shaw and McGregor are sent to investigate. But what they find waiting is far from routine, as the local police have already discovered to their cost. Before the night is out, our heroes will encounter terror beyond their most appalling nightmares-in a place where the night may never end at all.
A new kind of horror story for modern America, written by Garth Ennis (Preacher, The Boys, Crossed) and drawn by Goran Sudzuka (Y: The Last Man, Hellblazer)

Grimm Tales of Terror #2
FEB182014
(W) Ralph Tedesco (CA) Eric J
People from the same town begin receiving random "chain letter" emails stating they'll be granted luck if the email is forwarded along to 10 people, but promises grave circumstances to those who don't. What seems like an innocuous hoax soon proves otherwise and one man must break the curse before it's too late.
