About the series
From 1991 to 1993, Marvel expanded the mythos of Clive Barker's Hellraiser with this four-issue series, a companion to the iconic horror saga. Guided by writers Larry Wachowski and D. G. Chichester, with art from Miran Kim, John Rheaume, and Joe Barruso, the book delves into the dark histories of the Lament Configuration's most infamous figures. It explores the origins of the Cenobite leader Pinhead, the tragic legacy of toymaker Philip LeMarchand, and the infernal politics of Leviathan and Abigor, while introducing the tormented Sister Nikoletta. A key text for Hellraiser devotees, it deepened the franchise's lore during Marvel's early-'90s horror comics boom.
