Chin Music #2 – 2013 continues the shadowy, supernatural noir saga penned by Steve Niles and brought to life through the richly textured visuals of Tony Harris. This follow-up to the gripping first issue delves deeper into the arcane backstory of the series’ enigmatic protagonist, as well as the ancient powers that have cursed and reshaped him into something beyond human.
Set against the backdrop of 1930s Chicago, where organised crime reigns and eldritch forces simmer beneath the surface, this instalment sees the story move from mythic origins to brutal modern-day consequences. Readers are offered glimpses of dusty Egyptian tombs, twisted rituals, and the violent rebirth of a man transformed by powers he barely controls — all while weaving the threads of a larger, cosmic mystery.
Tony Harris’s artwork remains a masterclass in tone and texture. His ability to blend classic noir elements with supernatural motifs gives each page a dreamlike intensity. From shadowy alleyways to spell-soaked flashbacks, the visuals draw readers deeper into a story where the line between good and evil is as blurred as a foggy Chicago night.
A must-have for fans of occult thrillers, period detective fiction, or the creative stylings of Image Comics’ boldest voices. Ideal for collectors and readers seeking a blend of the magical and the macabre. Orders are dispatched quickly in sturdy, secure packaging to ensure pristine condition upon arrival.
