    Wow this whole issue had a feeling of impending doom and sheer gravity, the cover itself was pure ominous. I wonder what the remaining Oanes society member's agenda will be and how it will impact the...

    Ahh cheers mate! I love sharing the folklore and urban legends of my town, seemed like a fun way to do it that was in tune with the series. It was Mignola's love of adapting regional folk stories...
