From the twisted mind of Eisner Award-winning writer GARTH ENNIS (creator of The Boys and Preacher) and long-time artist collaborator JOHN McCREA (Hitman, The Demon, DEAD EYES) comes this disturbing, psychedelic tale of lust, greed, power, and possession. When you are offered your heart’s desire, what (and who) are you willing to sacrifice to achieve it? And should you really be making that deal with a… talking snail? An all-new, standalone horror tale from the top talent brought to fans by the Ninth Circle line of comics.

The Snail is a helluva look at our relationship with materialism and how it’s become bonded to our worth. Read Full Review

Nov 13, 2026By the final pages, the comic has committed to its own ridiculous nightmare without apologizing for a damn thing. I respect that.

It’s trying to crawl under your skin, crack a nasty joke, and leave a trail across your favorite shirt. Mission accomplished, mi gente. Read Full Review
