Grendel: Black, White, & Red #2

Synopsis

Impressively rendered in black, white, and blood-red, tales of the doomed Hunter Rose continue with work by some of the industry's top creators. C. Scott Morse (Soulwind), Bernie Mireault (The Jam), Paul Chadwick (Concrete), Tim Bradstreet (Maximum Black), David Mack (Kabuki) and Matt Wagner (Mage: The Hero Defined) bring Grendel back to vibrant, violent life. The Devil never looked so good!"Devil's Cue" (Mireault) shows how Larry Stohler manipulates a drug dealer into giving him some important information."Devil's Requiem" (Mack) is an in-depth retellling of how Hunter met Jocasta Rose, and conceptualized his identity as Grendel after her death."Devil's Coup" (Bradstreet) details the criminal dealings of the Ciccone family and the way Grendel persuaded Teddy Ciccone to give him control of their enterprises.In "Devil's Blessing" (Morse), a young boy witnesses the murder of his mother by some mobsters. Grendel shows up to slaughter the mobsters and also saves the boy."Devil's Garden" (Chadwick) gives us a peek into the relationship between Hunter and Stacy, which is cold and distant. Hunter gives her stuffed animals instead of the pets she wants, doesn't invite any kids to her birthday, and waxes poetic about the solitary, serene lives of spiders in a garden. She begins to take on the spider's characteristics as her own.
