DEVIANT TP (2025)

One of the grimmest chapters in Milwaukee's history repeats itself as Michael Schmitz is arrested for the copycat Deviant Killer slayings. Only his boyfriend, Derek, is convinced of his innocence. And if Derek is right, that means that the killer responsible for the grisly murders is still on the loose and is very, very unhappy that Derek is getting closer to unraveling the truth. Multiple Eisner Award-winning writer James Tynion IV and acclaimed artist Joshua Hixson bring their taboo-shattering horror story to its gut-wrenching conclusion. Collects The Deviant #5-9.

Hannibal meets Silent Night, Deadly Night in this pitch-black holiday horror story that cuts right through our most taboo notions. As snow falls over Milwaukee in 1972, a blood-stained Santa Claus commits unimaginable atrocities against young men. Fifty years later, a troubled young writer interviews this so-called "Deviant Killer," who still maintains his innocence from behind bars. And as Christmas approaches once again, the past returns, wielding a sharpened ax. Collects The Deviant #1-4.
