If power corrupts, then surely with great power comes even greater corruption. New York Times-bestselling author Joe Hill's darkest creation returns in an unsettling new tale!

Writer Jason Ciaramella and artist Zach Howard uncover new folds in Hill's cautionary anti-superhero tale with a story that takes place between the scenes of the original series. Eric's already killed one person and soon he'll go after his mom and brother. But first he'll go missing for three torturous days. What other atrocities will Eric commit? What violent secrets does the Cape still hide? There's no telling, but the answers to those questions will further underline The Cape's central theme--that no amount of power will make a bad person good.
Joe Hill is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Full Throttle, The Fireman, Heart-Shaped Box, and NOS4A2, recently made into a TV series from AMC. His horror novella In the Tall Grass, co-written with Stephen King, was made into a feature film from Netflix. His book of short stories, 20th Century Ghosts, won the Bram Stoker Award and British Fantasy Award for Best Collection. He earned the Eisner Award for Best Writer for his long-running comic book series, Locke & Key, featuring the eye-popping art of Gabriel Rodríguez.

Jason Ciaramella is an Eisner Award-nominated writer whose credits include Joe Hill's The Cape, Godzilla: Kingdom of Monsters, Magic the Gathering, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, all from IDW. He's also the writer of C is for Cthulhu: The Lovecraft Alphabet Board Book and other titles.

Zach Howard is an Eisner-nominated professional comic book artist who's worked for Marvel, Disney, DC, Image, IDW, and Steve Jackson Games, among others, on titles like Wild Blue Yonder, Shaun of the Dead, Spiderman, X-Men, GI Joe, The Cape, and Batman.
