Event Horizon: Inferno #2 Fleshes Out Some History While Giving an Aliens/Terminator Vibe

Posted on by Leave a comment
Event Horizon: Inferno #2

Two centuries ago, after vanishing for seven years, the starship Event Horizon reappeared near Neptune. Possessed by a demonic entity, the ship murdered most of its rescue crew before it was blown in two. One half fell into a portal to Hell and the other stayed in our solar system. Today, a billionaire, Daniel Durante, leads a crew of private space marines to the wreckage of the Event Horizon to investigate the ship. Durante is dead set on bringing his brother back from the afterlife and the means to do it lies aboard the Event Horizon! But his crew may have something to say about that… Event Horizon: Inferno #2 delivers more of Durante’s insanity while focusing on his ex-wife Skylar.

If Event Horizon the movie is Alien, Event Horizon: Inferno #2 is its Aliens. Witten by Christian Ward, this sequel to the cult-horror film takes us back to the plagued ship with a different motivation than just discovering what happened. Much like Aliens, some members are privy to far more information than provided to the military grunts and just like Aliens, it’ll take a strong, kick-ass woman to save the day.

Event Horizon: Inferno #2 focuses on Durante’s ex-wife Skylar who has been put in stasis due to Druante’s lies about her health. In reality, she’s the sacrifice/trauma engine needed to fuel the starship Event Horizon and allow it to awaken for Druante’s true mission, connecting with his dead brother.

Unlike the film and the prequel comic, there’s people who know what’s occurring in Event Horizon: Inferno and some who are counting on its demonic connections to help them in their mission. It turns the premise into survival horror, much like Aliens with Lieutenant Starck, the last surviving member of the Lewis & Clark, taking on the role of Ripley. This isn’t a bad thing at all and helps deliver something new to the franchise.

Rob Carey‘s art has a nice tense, and dark horror vibe to it. With color by Xenon Honchar and lettering by Alex Ray, the comic features a cold sci-fi look. Like the world of Alien, the tech is futuristic, but also feels grounded and not distracting. There’s a worn feel to everything and Carey and the team also keep things rather simple, in a survival horror sort of way with an axe playing a focus of major drama.

Event Horizon: Inferno #2 is a solid second issue that fleshes out the characters providing more details about the lead up to the mission and horror to come. Unlike the film and prequel comic, it doesn’t go for the imagery to make you squirm, though I’m sure that’s coming. It helps the sequel into a direction and territory that feels fresh and something new beyond just scares.

SDCC 2026: IDW Dark’s Fatal Fest blends Survival Horror with Hollywood Satire from Hannah Rose May and Andrea Scalmazzi

Posted on by Leave a comment

How far would you go to achieve your dream? Would you kill for it? Creator and writer Hannah Rose May and IDW Dark ready to unleash a first tease at Fatal Fest, her next nail-biting and bold original terror with IDW Publishing‘s horror imprint.

When six emerging horror filmmakers are invited to compete at Fatal Fest, the mysterious festival run by reclusive horror maestro Frank Finch and his legendary production empire, Fatal Films, they discover this is no ordinary film festival. Frank has one simple rule: to create true fear, you must experience it. If they want to win the Fatal Fest, they need to be willing to kill for it. 

Featuring artwork by Andrea Scalmazzi, Fatal Fest is a harrowing and twisted exploration of obsession with IP, the thirst for fame and Hollywood’s ruthless commodification of art. Survival horror collides with culturally relevant satire and readers won’t be able to look away from the brutal ride.

IDW Dark and May will unveil more details about Fatal Fest at San Diego Comic Con in July.
