Description

The Old West springs to afterlife in otherworldly color! He may have died at high noon, but he'll be back in the saddle by midnight! Outlaw Roy Mason has come back from the dead, chained to the tombstone that marked his grave. It's a lawless time, a magical time, and the undead Roy soon finds himself caught between a rock and a hard place as he sets out in search of treasure. But Roy, trying to do right by the wife and children he left behind, soon finds out that everything is not always as it seems... A classic tale of gunslinging revenge with a supernatural twist, Chained to the Grave presents western horror with a wholly unique visual style for a tale as refreshing as a second first breath. Collects the complete five-issue series from writers Brian Level (Avengers- Back to Basics) and Andy Eschenbach (Red Shoes) and artist Kate Sherron (My Little Pony, Invader Zim).

Reviews

"Intriguing, confident... destined for goodness." -Multiversity Comics "An entrancing walk away from the standards of horror and Western comics. Largely original." -Comicbook.com "Wacky, bizarre, sometimes slightly offensive but also beautiful, artistically and narratively. For as odd as this series is, I really admire it for how it goes absolutely all-in on its oddity. It never lets up, getting wackier and wackier every issue until it culminates here in a grand show of bizarreness." -But Why Tho? Podcast
