About the series
In the small, cursed town of Buckaroo, Oregon, an impossible number of serial killers have been born—and the most infamous of them, the "Nailbiter" Edward Warren, has vanished. Launched by Image Comics in 2014, this chilling horror series follows NSA agent Abigail Barker as she returns to Buckaroo to uncover the town's dark secret, teaming up with Warren's former friend, Eliot Carroll. With a rotating roster of artists including Mike Henderson, Charlie Adlard, and Chip Zdarsky, Nailbiter blends gruesome crime, supernatural mystery, and a deep dive into the psychology of evil. Its eight-issue run remains a standout for its unsettling atmosphere and the question that haunts every page: why does Buckaroo produce so many monsters?
