“Doom Comes in Emerald Green”

"Doom Comes in Emerald Green" kicks off with a chilling legacy reborn: the vengeful spirit of 17th-century witch Hepzibah stirs in her modern descendant, Nora. As Nora hunts down the bloodline of those who once condemned her ancestor, her husband faces an impossible choice when the firestorm of her wrath threatens to consume everything. Louis Zansky’s moody art brings the eerie descent to life, while Jim McLaughlin’s cover captures the haunting green glow of impending doom.
