On February 10, The Dark & Bloody, a new haunting monthly horror comic series from writer Shawn Aldridge and Scott Godlewski, with covers by Tyler Crook, will join Vertigo‘s refreshed slate of titles.

Guns, moonshine, monsters–there’s a lot going on in the backwoods of Kentucky. Iris Gentry is a war vet who returned from Iraq to find his options for feeding his family limited. Since they live in a “dry” county, Iris has turned to running moonshine for his former ranking officer–meaning the men now share crimes at home and abroad. You see, back in their combat days, Iris’ regiment got involved in something they shouldn’t have, and now a deadly, otherworldly consequence has come looking for vengeance.

Lookout for the new series when it hits shelves in February.
