Grendel Tales: The Devil May Care #1

In "Book 1" of Grendel Tales: The Devil May Care #1, the Indianapolis clan operates under the iron rule of Hack, while Malka makes a shocking rise by defeating Pogo in a brutal first heater match. As Director Dana struggles with an overburdened hospital plagued by Grendel-related injuries, her son Albert harbors a troubling desire to become a Grendel himself. Written by Terry LaBan and brought to life with bold, consistent art by Peter Doherty—pencils, inks, and colors all by the same hand—this issue establishes a tense, grounded world where power, legacy, and identity collide. The cover by Peter Doherty captures the story’s grim intensity.
