ALWAYS REMEMBER: HEAVY IS THE HEAD THAT WEARS THE CROWN . . . UNLESS THE KING IS ABOUT TO GET IT LOPPED OFF! Welcome, traveler . . . back to the blood-drenched ramparts of ye olde EC Comics that yearn for MORE tales of sadistic sorcery and malevolent magic! Yes, draw your sword and start swinging, because CRUEL KINGDOM lives again with an ALL-NEW volume of fatal fantasy, told in the immortal EC Comics manner by a magnificently malicious cast of all-star storytellers!In this CRUEL KINGDOM, there is no “happily ever after†. . . and sometimes the witch hunter becomes the hunter in the end, heh heh! Come, warm yourself by the pyre as vengeance-fueled writers David M. Booher (Canto), Matt Bors (The Toxic Avenger), and Jude Ellison S. Doyle (Dead Teenagers) turn the screws in tandem with axe-wielding artists Ryan Kelly (Lucifer), Lukas Ketner (Count Crowley), and David Lapham (Stray Bullets) to extract answers to the burning question of every knight and squire: Must every wizard’s tower also have an executioner’s dungeon buried down below? At EC Comics, we say, “YES, OF COURSE! NOW PROCEED WITH THE BEHEADING, YOU FOOL!â€
