The Neon Edition explodes onto the page as the thunderous 30th instalment in Kevin J. Kennedy’s celebrated horror series. An unchained, full-throttle descent into chaos. This is horror without boundaries. Without mercy. Without brakes. Inside, the future is a merciless wasteland where the desperate barter their own body parts just to survive. Flesh warps and betrays. Lovecraftian wormholes rip open the fabric of reality. Urban legends stalk the streets in broad daylight. Faith curdles into fanaticism and dread. Neighbours hide unspeakable secrets.

The Cop Who Taught Me is not motivation and it isn't theory.

Or each time he shoots me a friendly smile that makes my toes curl.

When we’re together on that mat, there’s a whole lot more spark and bang than I thought. And if I didn’t know any better, I’d say Benjamin Mercedy is hiding some ghosts in his gloves. Ghosts I’m ready to help tame.
