An ancient evil has stalked the Blaine family for generations, darkening the doorstep of their ancestral home in Cape Augusta, Maine. For surviving patriarch Chase Blaine, there's only one option left: hold his niece and nephew, MacKenzie and Zach, close and tear it all to the ground. But the past has no interest in being left behind. A coastal storm rages, and the dark waters of their family history come crashing down.

From writers Tim Daniel (End After End, Fissure, Denizen, and more!) and Michael Moreci (Barbaric, Wasted Space, Spree, and Revealer) and artist Joshua Hixson (Shanghai Red, The Black Woods, and Batman)

"There is a great balance between realistic dialogue and unspeakable horror and a cliffhanger that practically demands the reading of the next issue." ?The New York Times
"THE PLOT jars, upsets, shocks, and disorients?this comic is out to get you." ? Daniel Kraus (New York Times bestselling author of The Shape of Water, Whalefall, Trollhunters, The Living Dead, and The Autumnal graphic novel from Vault Comics)
