Let This One Be a Devil Volume 1

From the New York Times bestseller and multi-Eisner award-winner James Tynion IV (Something is Killing the Children, The Nice House on the Lake, The Department of Truth) and Eisner award-nominated Steve Foxe (Razorblades, All Eight Eyes) comes this ambitious comic book experience depicting bizarre stories of Cryptid encounters.

In the early 1900s, Henry Naughton returns home to the family farm in the swampy Pine Barrens of southern New Jersey. One night, he encounters a strange predator stalking the woods. This sends the young scholar on a research project that uncovers the legend of Mother Leeds and the terrible birth of the JERSEY DEVIL in 1735.

JAMES TYNION IV (Blue Book, Something is Killing the Children) and STEVE FOXE (Dark X-Men, All Eight Eyes along with PIOTR KOWALSKI (Bloodborne, Where Monsters Lie) bring the Jersey Devil to life in a supernatural tale of horror that peels back unknown layers of history and reveals local monsters and universal terrors.
