There’s something terribly wrong with Melissa Kerry. Her husband Andrew sees it. Their teenage daughter Vicki sees it. Melissa is losing herself, falling into the grips of the Empty Man pandemic that is spreading across the nation. Andrew and Vicki do all they can to care for her themselves, to keep her worsening condition a secret from the roving government quarantine crews, but it’s becoming harder and harder...until a strange visitor arrives on their doorstep, offering a cure. Written by Eisner Award-nominated author Cullen Bunn (Harrow County, Bone Parish) and illustrated by artist Jesús Hervás (Lucas Stand), Recurrence is the second installment in The Empty Man franchise and explores the psychological horror of a family member in decline, and the depths one will go to protect those they love.
Cullen Bunn is not expecting to grow flowers in the desert, but he can live and breathe and see the sun in the wintertime. He is the writer of creator-owned comic books such as THE SIXTH GUN, HARROW COUNTY, BONE PARISH, THE DAMNED, THE EMPTY MAN, REGRESSION, BASILISK, SHOCK SHOP, BASILISK, and DOOR TO DOOR, NIGHT BY NIGHT.  He also writes books such as DEADPOOL KILLS THE MARVEL UNIVERSE, MAGNETO, UNCANNY X-MEN, SINESTRO, LOBO, VENOM, and GODZILLA VS. THE MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS. He is the editor/curator of the horror imprint Outer Shadows from Outland Entertainment.  You can follow him on Patreon (www.patreon.com/cullenbunn) or subscribe to his weekly e-newsletter (https://cullenbunn.substack.com/).
