This new series that's described as "an unsettling tales of psychopaths, sweet love, and a serial killer named Walter" comes from Doug Wagner (The Ride, Plastic), artist Daniel Hillyard (Plastic), colorist Dave Stewart (Hellboy, Black Hammer), and letterer Ed Dukeshire (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Once and Future).

"PLASTIC creators DOUG WAGNER and DANIEL HILLYARD return with Eisner Award winner DAVE STEWART for an unsettling tale of psychopaths, sweet love, and a serial killer named Walter.
