Grendel: Behold the Devil

In this nine-issue Dark Horse series from 2007–2008, Matt Wagner returns to his signature creation, Grendel, with a story that delves into the hunter's shadowy past. Co-written by Jeremy Barlow and Randy Stradley, and featuring striking art from both Wagner and Mike Mignola, Behold the Devil expands the mythos of the masked outlaw with a brooding, noir-inflected tone. A key chapter in the Grendel saga, it stands as a collaborative showcase of two celebrated comic artists.
