Strange Killings: Necromancer

From 2004, Warren Ellis and Mike Wolfer brought a grim supernatural thriller to Avatar Press, following a detective who specializes in the bizarre and violent cases that ordinary law enforcement cannot handle. Wolfer's stark, visceral artwork matches Ellis's hard-boiled, horror-tinged storytelling as the series plunges into occult conspiracies and brutal urban nightmares. This six-issue run stands as a dark, cult-favorite entry in Ellis's exploration of the weird and the monstrous.
