Uncover the hellbound history of Pinhead, Clive Barker’s most infamous creation! A new era of ecstasy and agony begins here for Hellraiser! The long-awaited return of Hellraiser to comics is finally upon us, starting with Hellraiser: Resurrections, a series of five one-shots setting up the launch of a new Hellraiser ongoing series coming to shelves this winter! He’s lived so many lives. He’s died so many deaths. Does it ever end? Is there peace or only endless war? He’s lived with so many names—The Hell Priest, The Acolyte, The Cold Man, and the one that has always plagued him—Pinhead.Caught in the sensory deprivation of Middle Hell, Elliot Spencer suffers the worst fate: no feeling at all. No pain, no pleasure, just unending consciousness. When the glory of Leviathan’s light finally sears through him, granting him the gift of pain—it’s revelatory. The Hell Priest must journey to remake himself and gather his Gash once more to bring the cherished blessing of pain to all that deserve it. After all, there is a calling telling him the way...no, that he is the way... Writer Sarah Gailey and artist Alessio Avallone explore the ecstatic depths of sensation in this stage-setting one-shot.
