Issue number one of Bardo starts off with a chilling story written by Will Frank and illustrated by Reed Chappell.  In “The Zookeepers,” Kroll finds himself in an abandoned zoo within the ruins.  Unable to control his actions, Kroll finds himself in danger and stumbles upon an ancient secret.  

The second story, “Viaduct” opens with our protagonist waking up in an empty house unable to remember who he is or how he got there.  Viaduct is a surrealist story, the first to be written and illustrated both by Reed.  It showcases strange characters, a sphinx, a haunted remote control, and a few Marx brothers jokes.  


This is the first issue of the new horror anthology, Bardo, and is sure to be a collector’s item.  This issue features cover art by Reed as well and a back cover in anaglyphic 3-D.  Get ‘em while they’re hot!
