Serial killer Matt Jordan kills his final victim before killing himself... but death is not the end. He wakes up to find himself in his own personal hell surrounded by the people he killed. Freed by Soul Collector, Soku, he discovers the only way he can live in an afterlife free from his victims is to find the mythical City of Lost Souls.
As if that wasn't hard enough he also finds himself being hunted by creatures from the other side, determined to bring his soul back to be tormented. With nowhere to hide and no idea where to run he must begin his hunt for the city of lost souls.
REVIEWS
"Although City of Lost Souls unflinchingly showcases the utter nadir of human nature in bursts of brutal fury, the dialogue manages to mine a vein of dark humour that prevents it becoming too disheartening, while the artwork continues to delight in the gleeful depravity of onomatopoeic viscera."
9/10 STARBURST MAGAZINE ISSUE 418
"Scary stuff. Very dark and genuinely dark. both in story and art."
PAT MILLS, 2000ad, ACCIDENT MAN, MARSHAL LAW
"Dark, intense and disturbing. McCulloch puts the "sin" in sinister."
JOHN FERGUSON, SALTIRE
"Some fairly extreme ideas are starting to roll out across the pages of COLS but there is an underlying point to it all where the worst aspects of life, death and everything in-between are laid bare for us to experience & ultimately learn from. The dialogue from James maintains the same brutal, honest and sharp edge to it while Janine’s artwork has become more highly detailed and visceral since the previous issue…..adding another unsettling dimension to Matt’s story. Grim, gruesome and great is how this all combines and this twisted tale continues to twist."
8/10 COMICS ANONYMOUS
"A dark twist on the age-old hero’s quest but without a hero; a Dante’s Inferno without Dante and a final page that only ramps up the promise of further bloodshed in future issues... Dark in tone and in humour."
BLEEDING COOL
"What we have here in prospect is a meditation on redemption, on morality and mortality. A story that’s taking on some big, serious ideas with a punky haircut, a flick of the V’s and a whole lot of spit. It’s a book packed with ideas and quirks and charm, laced through with a wicked sense of humour and an irreverence in which it glories."
GEEK RETREAT
"Very cool, I felt dirty reading it in a good way. A dark comic series with so much potential."
