Nocturnals: The Sinister Path

An exquisitely hand-painted tale from Dan Brereton’s Eisner-nominated supernatural-noir comics series NOCTURNALS.

While the town sleeps, evil rises.

A war is being fought for the soul of Pacific City. It’s a war fought by monsters, both human and supernatural. But luckily, some of the monsters are on our side. The Nocturnals—a band of misfit vigilantes led by Doc Horror, his supernaturally-gifted daughter Evening (aka Halloween Girl), and an armed revenant known as the Gunwitch—are all that stand against the eldritch criminal underworld of Pacific City.

The death of the mysterious Judge Hemlock opens a macabre power vacuum in the eldritch underworld. But when the Nocturnals investigate the occult-enshrouded Hemlock house, what they find will lead them down a twisted and deadly sinister path.
