A new story arc for those of you sitting on the edge of the Hack/Slash pool and looking for a good place to jump in is also the return of regular artist Liester after a one-off break. Seeley has crafted a story that is a dark fantasy that some of us (myself included) may want to act on or at least look the other way. That fantasy…KILLING POP STARS!!! To make matters worse, Cassie is seeing the murders happen in her dreams making us think it could be a certain slasher already returning from the past. Also This issue features not one but two back up stories, the first another enstalment of Horror Haven Favorite Hoax Hunters by Written by Michael Moreci & Steve Seeley, art by JM Ringuet, Letters by Jim Campbell. The second is the Corpem scripts by James Lowder, Art by Jean-Paul Deshong Colors by Rachel Rosenburg, Letters by Crank!.
