The Butcher's Boy

Deep within the backroads of the Pacific Northwest, an entire town fell victim to the brutal cleaver of the Butcher of La Perdita.

But that was more than a hundred years ago, and in that time the generational nightmare of murder and meat has been reduced to morbid clickbait folklore for bored travelers to share online.

And yet some say the Butcher still haunts the streets at night, seeking fresh meat for his larder. A true Lovecraftian horror? Or just the feverish dreams of a mentally unstable serial killer. Six friends on a road trip are about to find out…

Combining elements from tales such as Midsommar and The Evil Dead, this spine-tingling horror lurches from the minds of New York Times bestselling author Landry Q. Walker and artist Justin Greenwood of the critically acclaimed series The Last Siege.

Collects The Butcher’s Boy #1–#4.
Praise for The Last Siege:

“Through gritty dialogue, excellent mood setting art, and a commitment to realism, The Last Siege #1 is a terrific debut in a often forgotten genre of comics.”—AIPT

“A debut issue that explains just enough to keep readers invested, taking a chance on narrative and setting mash-ups that really work based on the merits of a mysterious scrip and moody art style.”—Multiversity Comics
