Synopsis: From Cullen Bunn(Harrow County, The Sixth Gun, Night Walkers) and Joe Bocardo(Night Walkers) comes a new tale of Hellish familial horror. Jamison Kreel is dead. Six of his children from six mothers are attending the funeral of a father they never met. Each of the children possesses a different infernal power. These powers, though, come at a terrible price…a price Jamison Kreel has placed upon the heads of his offspring. And the demonic debtors have come to collect.
“I didn’t really notice it during the writing process. I mean, I did, but this tale of the ultimate dysfunctional family with the ultimate infernal heritage wouldn’t allow me to slow down. In the aftermath, though, while looking through Joe’s gorgeous (and gorgeously sinister) pages, I realized that this is a dark story. Real horror–real dread–drips off these pages. But this is also a story of hope, of standing up for yourself, of rallying against whatever destiny others have cooked up for you. This is a story of raging against the dying of the light. Only, the light isn’t dying. It’s flaring up. And it’s hellfire.”
– Writer, Cullen Bunn
“The Hexiles is a dark tale about destiny, cursed inheritances, and people bound by blood… lots of blood. A horror story that found refuge in a cave of madmen, where they love comics and work with true professionalism, and created by Cullen Bunn, a diabolical mind capable of turning the worst nightmares into words and convincing you to stay and live in them.
As an artist, I couldn’t ask for a better team.”
– Artist, Joe Bocardo
