A Legacy of Chills: London Horror Comic Keeps the Frights Alive
For nearly two decades, John-Paul Kamath’s London Horror Comic has captivated UK small press enthusiasts. The series delivers complete stories in almost every issue. This rare approach makes it easy for new readers to jump in.
Comic Delights and Scares
London Horror Comic #11 offers two riveting tales. The first features Jane Silver, a female counterpart to John Constantine. Set in a graveyard, the story is both eerie and hilarious. Silver and university researcher Tammy await an undead reveal. Their witty banter spices up the escapist tale. It’s a zombie romp that’s heavy on dark humor. Craig Cermak’s art shines with choreographed action that captures both creepiness and comedy.
In a dramatic shift, the second story dives deep into tension. Focused on a murderer’s interrogation, it explores intense emotional terrain. Adam Jakes’s art creates a suffocating atmosphere, enhancing the narrative’s slow burn. The plot twists around a young girl left orphaned by the crime. Character interactions drive the storytelling, which Jakes renders with expert skill.

London Horror Comic has stood the test of time in the small press world. Countless series and artists have come and gone, yet this one endures. If you love genre fiction and horror comics, this series is for you. The mix of supernatural elements and solid storytelling makes it a standout.
