This horror comic combines urban myths with the serial killer and revenge flick genres in an entertaining and thrilling manner. This is a dark story. Heads are lopped off, the innocent are harmed, and sins are committed. Writer Jaime “Jimmy” Portillo has a good eye for staging a moody scene and punctuating it with a horrific payoff. Writer of the extremely moody and frightening vampire tale GABRIEL (covered right here in Indie Jones last year), Portillo seems to have a firm hold on what can scare a reader. There were a few instances where the captions redundantly described the action in this issue, but those are minor missteps. The dark tone, horrific action, and damn fine art from Arturo Delgado Molina make THE RAILROAD KILLER one horror comic to look out for.
