Product description
Torn from the decaying fingers of a desiccated wizard’s corpse and emblazoned with the undying sigil of EC Comics, this might just be our most brutish issue of CRUEL KINGDOM yet—and we’re springing some special prisoners from the dungeon to celebrate! First: Master storyteller and four-time Eisner Award winner Mark Buckingham (Miracleman, Fables) makes an immortal mark on the annals of EC history with a terrifying tale so sickening it will make the dead themselves sit up to wretch! Plus: There’s even more shocks for shilling as accursed creators Cameron Chittock (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x Stranger Things), Melissa Flores (Power Rangers Prime), Sami Kivelä (The Forever Home), and Alison Sampson (Department of Truth) venture yet deeper in the unexplored realms of fatal fantasy and malevolent magic from eons past.

What Legionnaires Are Saying

Comic Legion keeps us posted from FOC right through release day, helping inform us of any comics we may want. Everything always shows up in beautiful shape.
Premium books, premium service, always top quality from Comic Legion. Very happy with the order, and I look forward to getting more!
Beautiful books! Excellent, fast service, shipping and packaging!
The NCBD YouTube shows are the highlight of my week. They always have the trending new books, and you can tell every copy has been checked for damages.
New, high-quality modern books at the best prices, amazing shipping quality and excellent service with great comic knowledge. Legion shows are a must-see!
Beautiful, high-quality books shipped fast with great protection. Condition as described, fantastic value and appearance. Thank you!
Comic Legion goes the extra mile to make sure people get the hot new books. Their screening process is the real deal, and every book I've received has been near mint, bagged and boarded. That means a lot to me as someone who submits a ton of comics for grading.
Super well packed. Comics are immaculate. Quick shipping too. Thanks again!
Immaculate condition, as described. Perfect communication, quick shipping, quality packaging.
Best customer service I've had from any comic shop. My Hold Box is always handled perfectly, and the FOC Phalanx Discord channel reminders mean I never miss a comic at FOC that I may end up wanting.
Comic Legion is where all the hot comics are. If you're not following them, you're missing out!
Excellent seller! Beautiful condition, beautiful books, items as described and well packaged!
