DESCRIPTION

"Beware the Creatures of the Night--They Have Lawyers!"

This issue: "A Host of Horrors!"

The Bier-Meister is a 1950s-style horror host whose career is revived as a host for a special on the Eek! Channel (EC) all-horror network. Arrested for graverobbing in an incident involving the grave of Dr. Forrest Bertrum, “Bierie” is exonerated but then loses the hosting job due to pressure on the network from a parents’ group, the Children’s Movement Activist Association. W&B represent the Bier-Meister’s suit against a local county for banning the EC network, raising the issue of free speech versus “protecting the children.” Meanwhile, Sodd signs a deal for British horror novelist Niles Pib (based on Neil Gaiman) to write his life story.

Nghia Lam provides a Vertigo-style back cover that parodies the front image.
