Jennifer McStay knows what it’s like to feel trapped. Stuck in a world of violence, where once intimate spaces become claustrophobic, and everything seems to shrink until there’s nothing left but fear. Maybe that means she’ll be able to survive the real monsters, who live outside and hunt human emotion. Or maybe it means the monsters will finally be her escape.
Disparate lives are woven together in this terrifying, new world where strong emotions are hunted by monstrous creatures. While General Sullivan tries to lure the lifeforms into a fight, Jessica finally finds the courage to leave her own domestic monster. Meanwhile, Naresh is about to investigate a community where there have been no attacks...before being delayed by an act of gut-wrenching horror.
Nightmare deaths, constant fear, and twisted emotions.
When top virologist Dr. Naresh Sharma gets an unexpected request from General Sullivan to help him catch one of the monsters who killed her beloved son, she might just find a way to avenge her boy and stop herself from crumbling with grief. But how do you catch a monster who appears out of nowhere and just as quickly vanishes? Meanwhile, we discover what really scares General Sullivan — and it isn’t a monster.
The life-forms continue to cast their awful shadow over humanity, particularly young lovers Bisa and Dax, who, after witnessing a terrible incident, decide that drastic action must be taken if they’re to survive. Meanwhile, Colonel Sullivan gets closer to one particular gassed and caged monster. Is the monster trying to communicate?
Certain that the life-forms are trying to communicate, General Sullivan turns to pseudoscience for a way to talk back. But has he awoken something real, something that makes them even more dangerous?
Anjali returns with the strange psychedelic fungus, which might be a potential savior or a dangerous poison. Meanwhile, the Reverend Hays faces his darkest hour, and Jessica’s flight from her brutal husband comes to a chilling and unexpected conclusion. Monsters, quantum physics, and religious visions collide in a gory but sensitive penultimate issue.
Will God save the day? The Reverend Hays’ incautious open-air prayer gathering attracts a wide audience--some seeking redemption, some death, others entertainment. But will it also attract huge human-eviscerating monsters? Meanwhile, as Dax and Bisa speak in tongues, plans are afoot to poison all of humanity. Love, faith, monsters and psychedelia in the final issue of Human Remains.
