Dead Eyes Open

In this six-issue miniseries from Slave Labor Graphics, writer Matthew Shepherd and artist Roy Boney Jr. craft a gritty supernatural crime story set in a world where the dead can be briefly reanimated to answer for their crimes. Following a detective who uses this macabre ability to solve murders, the series blends noir atmosphere with eerie, visceral imagery. Published in the mid-2000s, Dead Eyes Open stands out as a dark, self-contained exploration of justice and the afterlife from the indie comics scene.
