"An expert case of slow-burn horror... Daphne Byrne solidifies itself as one of the most unsettling comics on the stands today." - James Ferguson, Horror DNA

“Some of the most frightening comics pages of 2020” —Chase Magnett, ComicBook.com

In the gaslit splendor of old New York, rage builds inside fourteen-year-old Daphne. The sudden death of her father has left her alone with her irresponsible, grief-stricken mother, who becomes easy prey for a group of occultists promising to contact her dead husband. While fighting to free her mother from these charlatans, Daphne begins to sense a strange, insidious presence in her own body...an entity with unspeakable appetites. He calls himself her "Brother". What does he want? And could she even stop him if she tried?
