Wormwood Volume 1

Wormwood Volume 1: Gentleman Corpse by Ben Templesmith. Comic readers probably know Templesmith's art from titles like 30 Days of Night and Warren Ellis' Fell. If you've enjoyed his subtly twisted layered art, you'll be pleased to know he also writes decently twisted comedy-horror. The title character is a centuries-old sentient maggot who hangs out in a demon strip club and plays the PI card now and then. This first title is full of eldritch horror, demonic infestation, and lots and lots of gross-out bits. That said, it's an awful lot of fun, and should appeal to those with like sensibilities.
