The latest issue of “Super Creepshow” delivers another thrilling mix of superhero tales in two fresh installments. Sam Humphries and Sean Izzaske introduce Killglare, a retired super-criminal struggling to escape his past, only to discover his old life isn’t done with him yet. Meanwhile, Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly, joined by artist Matteo Lolli, unveil the origin of The Healer, a new superhero with the extraordinary power to grant life. This anthology stands out for its smooth adherence to the classic format, expertly fusing horror influences with the signature campy style of “Creepshow.” The Lanzing/Kelly/Lolli narrative brings a chilling twist with a life-giving hero. At the same time, the Humphries/Izzaske story shifts the spotlight to a supervillain—a rare focus in recent issues dominated by heroes. Although the contributions from acclaimed creators like Humphries, Lanzing, Kelly, Lolli, and Izzaske occasionally feel rushed, the shocking turns in each story reinforce why this “Creepshow” issue is such an engaging read, delivering thrills and broadening the superhero universe with a darker edge.
