Grips Special #1 (1992) introduces a chilling supernatural twist as Carrie’s friend Tina, obsessed with the occult, accidentally pulls both her and Grips into a surreal, dreamlike realm when her mind is seized by the forgotten goddess Libitina. Written by Doug Miers and brought to life with moody, intricate art by Roman Morales III—both on interior pages and the cover—this early entry in the Greater Mercury Comics line blends psychological dread with mythic unease.
