About the series
During its brief 2004–2005 run at IDW, The Lurkers delivered a taut four-issue horror series from writer Steve Niles and artist Hector Casanova. The story unfolds in a small town where unsettling, subterranean creatures begin to emerge, preying on the isolated community. Niles, already known for his modern horror touch, paired with Casanova's moody visuals to craft a lean, atmospheric chiller that stands as a tight example of early-2000s independent horror comics.
