Issue Description

The bloody conclusion of the horror series of the year has too much violence to fit in a normal comic, so this final issue is super-sized! There is nothing left to do but for Cindy and the last of her friends to take the battle to the Crossed. It doesn?t go well. Garth Ennis takes no prisoners and offers no hope in the most intense book of his career! Nothing is going right, but this is no fairy tale -- there are no magic cures on the horizon. When civilization crumbles in one terrifying moment; when people are gleefully breaking into unthinkable acts of violence all around you; when everyone you love has died screaming in agony: What do you do? There is no help. There is no hope. There is no escape. There are only the Crossed. This stomach-churning vision is brought to vivid by his partner in crime Jacen Burrows. This nihilistic ninth issue is available with a Regular or Wraparound cover by Burrows as well as a rare Red Crossed Edition by Burrows.

Volume Description

Violence, horror, gore and more violence. Another very disturbed series thanks to Garth Ennis and Jacen Burrows.

Told in the style of the 'Night of the Living Dead' classics, the story follows a group of 'survivors' trying to make their way from one safe haven to another and just survive as an unexplained disease (or supernatural event) turns most of the world's population into inhibition-less cannibalistic killing and raping machines.

This is flat out gut-wrenching, disgusting fare. Then again, as it comes from Garth Ennis, if you are one who fancies yourself to be on a similarly misanthropic wavelength, you may find some humor in it as well, you sick puppy.

Collected in Crossed vol. 1.
