The spectacular finale of the scariest sci-fi story ever told! The spaceship Event Horizon has been to Hell, but will it come back? After their captain’s death, the last crew members make a last-ditch attempt to destroy the ship’s gravity drive. It’s perhaps the only thing capable of hurting Paimon! But…what is this angelic presence felt aboard the ship? Horror masters Christian Ward and Tristan Jones tell the final chapter of the crew of the Event Horizon!
Event Horizon: Dark Descent #5 largely sticks the landing, delivering a grim, blood-soaked finale that understands what made the original film linger in viewers' minds: dread, guilt, and the terrifying idea that hell isn't just a place, but it's something you carry with you. Christian Ward and Tristan Jones lean into spectacle without losing sight of character, even if the story introduces a few last-minute cosmic curveballs that feel more like setup than payoff. Still, as a prequel and a bridge to what's next, Dark Descent proves this franchise has plenty of nightmares left to explore. Read Full Review
