The Dregs

In The Dregs, Black Mask Studios presents a four-issue noir-horror miniseries from 2017, following a homeless man in a decaying city who becomes obsessed with solving a series of murders among the city's forgotten population. Illustrated by Eric Zawadzki, the series blends gritty social commentary with surreal, nightmarish imagery, exploring themes of gentrification, addiction, and the erasure of the marginalized. It stands as a sharp, unsettling work that uses genre conventions to examine real-world urban decay and systemic neglect.
