Canary #1 Cover G 25 Copy Thompson

CANARY

In 1891 a mine collapsed into itself. What was the dark substance found  666 feet underground? Blending modern horror, historical fact and  Western lore, Scott Snyder and Dan Panosian have created a uniquely  terrifying thriller with Canary. During the final  days of the Gold Rush, one mining company in Colorado, pulled up  radioactive Uranium, and then the mine then collapsed in on itself.  Legends sprung up about the mine being cursed or even haunted. Now the  Frontier is closed, the gold and silver mines have dried up. The country  is becoming "civilized," and yet, in one stretch of the Rocky  Mountains, a terrifying, new kind of violence is suddenly emerging.  Random killings. People going mad and murdering neighbors, classmates  without real cause. When a schoolboy kills his teacher with a hatchet, a  famous federal marshal named Azrael William Holt is called in to  investigate the killings. What he--and a brilliant young  geologist--uncover is stranger and more horrifying than anything they  could have ever imagined. •  Collects the Comixology   series in print for the first time! •  New series by Scott Snyder and Dan Panosian!
