Grendel: War Child #3

Plot

The chase is still on for young Jupiter Assante, heir to the throne of the Grendel-Khan, and his abductor, the mysterious masked figure -- who, we now learn, may even have been sent by the Khan himself! This issue finds the pair stealing through the Louisiana swamps, only to land on the doorstep of an old witch! It would seem the ancient crone is more foe than friend, however, when news of Jupiter's death travels back to his stepmother, Laurel Kennedy.

NOT FOR CHILDREN

Plus, in the Afterword section begins "The Long and Twisted History of Grendel" by Matt Wagner. Part 1 is dedicated to life and death of Hunter Rose, the original Grendel.
