The Lurkers

(IDW, 2004-2005)
story © 2004 Steve Niles and art © Hector Casanova

From the fertile mind of writer Steve Niles (Cal MacDonald Mysteries, 30 Days of Night) comes yet another haunting and horrifying tale of terror. When Homicide Detective Deitz is called to yet another crime scene on the streets of LA, little does he know the mystery that is about to unfold around him. A cemetery has been violated and within a child’s grave has been desecrated. Within that selfsame cemetery an evil lurks, and one LA cop is about to find out just how ancient that evil is. Gruesome and atmospheric with an almost cartoon–ish art style, this book is another notch in the horror–writer’s belt of hits. If you liked his work on other IDW titles like Hyde or Return to Barrow, check out this murder mystery with a twist.
