Silent Hill

Silent Hill Three Bloody Tales

This blood-soaked volume collects IDW Publishing's three chilling one-shots based on Silent Hill, the smash-hit Konami videogame series. In "Among the Damned," a young, guilt-ridden soldier meets a doomed soul that will either change his life or end it. In "Paint It Black," a painter finds his dark muse in Silent Hill, until a group of cheerleaders arrive and the attacks begin. "The Grinning Man" tells the tale of the terrifying title character, who faces off against a State Trooper one day away from retirement.

Despite not being too original or subtle, I loved this story of an army veteran going into Silent Hill. I think Silent Hill is always a bit heavy handed with the metaphors and the “deeper meaning” behind specific monsters, but I think I don’t care enough to let it ruin the story for me. I loved this small and simple story, and I think a war-torn soldier going through the titular town is an interesting storyline that I’m surprised hasn’t reached the main games (as far as I’m aware of). Loved the grungy art style and I’m curious to see how other stories in this universe fair.
