Tomorrow sees the release of Hellraiser: Bestiary #3, featuring two short stories set in the Hellraiser universe and Part 3 of "The Hunted", in which Pinhead fights back against a group of mercenaries attempting to steal his pins. We have preview pages that include a look at "The Conduit", a short story that explores the link between the ancient LeMarchand Device and modern, sleek smartphones.

“Over the past three years, Clive Barker has re-imagined the HELLRAISER mythos as only he could, building a long-form narrative that became one of the best-received horror comics in recent memory. Now, the Master of Horror takes us into his Bestiary for an anthology series—free of continuity, but full of shocking consequences. This series will feature comics’ rising stars like Ed Brisson (Sheltered) and Michael Moreci (CURSE), and the first issue will feature the comics debut of award-winning novelist Victor LaValle (The Devil in Silver, Big Machine).

Step into the Bestiary for all-new tales of the LeMarchand Device and its guardians!"

Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Bestiary #3 (of 6)

"The trip through The Cenobites’ Bestiary continues! This month, Ed Brisson (Sheltered) and Alexis Ziritt (The Package) show us how smartphones and the LeMarchand Device are connected in “Conduit,” while in “Puzzled,” a young man with an aptitude for solving puzzles finds refuge with the legendary device. And finally, Pinhead erupts against the forces amassed against him in part three of “The Hunted.”"
