Criminal Macabre: Spirit of the Demon

In this 2022 single-issue special from Dark Horse, Steve Niles and artist Szymon Kudranski return to the occult-tinged world of Criminal Macabre for a tense, self-contained tale. The story pits the series' signature monster-fighting protagonist against a demonic threat that pushes his supernatural detective work to its limits. It’s a lean, atmospheric entry that showcases the collaborative chemistry between Niles’s gritty horror-noir writing and Kudranski’s shadow-drenched, cinematic art.
