(W) Matt Wagner (A) Bernie Mireault (CA) Matt Wagner. The spirit of Grendel seethes in the mind of everyone it encounters. A touch of death* of fear* of anger infects all* gripping at the soul* and wreaking havoc on the lives of those in its path. In this now-classic chapter of the Grendel saga* we return to Brian Li Sung* a once-successful Broadway stage manager who became Grendel after losing the love of his life-the granddaughter of the original Grendel* Hunter Rose. Now down and out* living in the slums of Brooklyn* Li Sung struggles as an off-off-off-Broadway stage manager by day; by night* he stews in the hatred and violence that is Grendel* and becomes a cold-blooded killer. When old friends can't help him* and the city can no longer cope with this scourge of destruction* it's up to one desperate cop to stop the murderous rampage* or die trying. Collecting the three-issue miniseries. All-new cover painting by Grendel creator Matt Wagner.
