Only 36 copies exist in this unique state, each with a hand-carved stake piercing the slab that also props it up to display at home. Yes, you read that right. Actual wooden stakes. Actual comic books. A blood-soaked collectible masterpiece turned fine art installation that is limited to just 36 copies, each a one-of-a-kind art piece that sits upright when leaned against the stake.
Cul-De-Sac marks the long-awaited return to comic books of writer and master of the macabre Mike Carey, who is combining his powers with illustrator Jonathan Wayshak to deliver a nightmarish new vision for the horror genre.
What lurking evil lies hidden at the end of the cul-de-sac?
Nestled in a tucked-away corner of sleepy suburbia, the Kingsley, Herriman and Ortega families seemed like any other close-knit neighbors. So nothing seems amiss when Mrs. Kingsley piles all the neighborhood kids into the family RV for their annual summer camp-out. But in the dark of the woods, she unleashes a grisly, bloodcurdling display, revealing their families’ shocking secret—their parents are vampires and they’re eager to pass on their legacy.
Now the children must choose—to join them and revel in their awesome dark powers or live out their lives as mortals. But when they return home, they confront a gruesome scene—their parents dead on the floor, brutally murdered by an elite squad of vampire hunters. And the hunters? They’re looking to finish the job. Now the kids are on the run, chased by vampire hunters, the police, and even a shadowy cabal of their fellow vampires as they search for answers to unlock the secret of what they really are before their fates are sealed forever.
The Origin of The Impaled Edition #1 crawls out of the demented minds of Joshua Dysart and David Lapham with colorist supreme Hilary Jenkins and cover colorist Rico Renzi. The team tells a centuries-spanning tale of vampire hunting, global war, and meta horror that sports an ending you won’t believe.
