Underheist
By Maria and David Lapham
As outrageous as the Stray Bullets comics have got over the years - and they were truly outrageous, right from the start - they are still grounded in the grim and gritty real world. Fantasy is for the Amy Racecar comics.
But the underworld of Underheist is just slightly around the corner from the Laphams’ biggest work. These characters would be messing about with Beth or Monster in their spare time, but have taken a detour to literal Hell, where nothing is to be trusted, and everything is horrible.
It’s moody and confusing and excellent, and a marvelously unsettling side-trip out of the real and into the decidedly unreal.
