Blood Between the Panels SPECIAL REPORT- Devil 4 Preview
by Bryce Holland
For all you diligent watchers of my kick-ass comics review series, Blood Between the Panels, you might remember a couple weeks back that I reviewed a series from Dark Horse Comics called Devil.
Devil is easily one of the most unique horror comics to come along in quite some time. It blends frenetic action, science-fiction, vampire mythology, and blood drenched horror to create a very original take on the old “infection” story.
This week, the good folks at Dark Horse were kind enough to pass along some preview pages from the upcoming 4th and final issue of the Devil limited series, due out in a couple weeks. Check ‘em out:
Devil # 4
Writer: Torajiro Kishi, Madhouse Studios

Humanity is on the brink of extinction. Or so the Devils would have you believe. A freakish virus is infecting people, “evolving” them into vampire-like Devils, who see themselves as the new apex of the earth’s food chain. One of these Devils, the recently turned Nishioka, is on a mission. If he succeeds, he could free the most dangerous threat to humanity-the beautiful and vicious Mariko. But is Nishioka’s love for Mariko a strength, or the key to his undoing?
