New Releases by Phil Hester

Separated by a raging flood and stalked by the last surviving creature on the island, Phair and young Mia fight to stay alive as the storm becomes both their greatest enemy and their only shield. But as the thunder fades, so does their cover—leaving them exposed at the very moment Mia’s brother’s cries give the monster its next target. Meanwhile, Chief Fry faces the impossible: a ruined bridge, a stranded family, and monsters massing just across the gap. His desperate mission to protect what’s left of civilization ignites a chain of events that will echo straight into Phair’s fight for survival.

Fire Chief Fry’s pleas went unheard in the last hours of Pearl, Iowa—but in the present, his sister, wingnut mayor Phair, is finally heeding his warning. As she desperately defends what’s left of her town and Fry’s daughter from the invading creatures, Phair wishes more than anything she had listened to her brother when she had the chance. But now…her brother is nowhere to be found.

The world ended in a hush. The creatures came for the cities first. But in Pearl, Iowa—a tiny island town on the Mississippi—the mayor and townsfolk believe that’s someone else’s problem. Cut off from the chaos of the coasts, they think they can ride out the storm. But fire chief Lonnie Fry knows better. The creatures that hunt by sound are coming west, and unless the people of Pearl take drastic action, silence won’t save them—it’ll bury them. From legendary creators Phil Hester (Green Arrow, Swamp Thing) and Ryan Kelly (Lucifer, Local) comes the first-ever A Quiet Place comic series—an untold chapter of fear, family, and sacrifice set in the terrifying world of the blockbuster films.
