Man-Thing #4
In "Silent Night," writer John Marc DeMatteis and artist Liam Sharp deliver a haunting tale as Eric Simon Payne, tormented by a Nexus fragment, descends into madness that warps reality itself. Trapped in a nightmarish version of Rosewell Sanitarium, Payne sees the Man-Thing as a demon and takes up arms as Devil-Slayer in a desperate, delusional bid for salvation. The cover by Liam Sharp captures the eerie, surreal tension of the story’s grim atmosphere.
