Event Horizon: Inferno #1

It’s Aliens meets Dante’s Inferno! Space marines clash with demons aboard the Event Horizon in this follow-up to the biggest horror comic of 2025!

In 2040, the starship Event Horizon disappeared. Seven years later, it returned possessed by a demonic entity. After murdering its rescue crew, it was blown in half, with the front of the ship left yearning for its heart: a gravity drive designed for interdimensional travel. Two hundred years later, a billionaire brings his own private star fleet to the wreckage around Neptune. He’s heard stories of the Event Horizon and will gleefully sacrifice any number of employees to uncover its secrets!

Christian Ward (Event Horizon: Dark Descent, Two-Face) returns to the Event Horizon, joined by superstar sci-fi artist Rob Carey (Outsiders, Aliens: Resistance) to tell another story spun out of the cult-classic film! Hell is only a word. The reality is much, much worse.
