Part of Series
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 uncovers 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 his ex-girlfriend and (spoiler alert) 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.
