Lauren and Darren were working through their issues when the bad year hit. 2020 was when the world caught fire, when their relationship went to hell, and when a strange coin pushed things one step further. The latest chapter in the hit horror anthology THE SILVER COIN, from JOHNNIE CHRISTMAS, JAMES TYNION IV, STEPHANIE PHILLIPS, PORNSAK PICHETSHOTE, and MICHAEL WALSH, is out this month.
The Silver Coin #14 is a chilling but mesmerizing look into a trauma that many of us are still living through, utilizing horror to heighten those feelings of helplessness and despair. With Pichetshotes ability to weave emotional beats into moments of utter terror, Walsh and Griffin make this issue the most timely story in the interconnected anthology series by matching that craft. Everything about this book, from the story, to the plotting, and the art, is both twisting and timely, delivering what might be the best issue of an already strong series. Read Full Review

Walsh offers some beautifully dark, brilliantly detailed and disturbingly visceral imagery throughout the story. A wonderfully dark and disturbing visual feast. Read Full Review
Most of us want to forget everything about the year 2020, but this issue uses the year from hell as a was of exorcising some demons. In this case, though, the demons may well be literal ones. It's a strong story with wonderfully disturbing artwork. Read Full Review
I enjoyed it. It got pretty close to real life, which if done bad, can ruin the comic experience, but they nailed it. A good Silver Coin.
