IDW Publishing To Paint It Black With Silent Hill

Silent Hill is a strange and wicked place. Things happen there that make its visitors wish they were just bad dreams. But they're not.

Painter and semi-professional slacker Ike finds this out the only way guys like him ever find anything out... the hard way. Ike finds his dark muse in the mist-enshrouded, monster-infested reaches of Silent Hill. Then along comes the very sexy, survivalist-trained, gunslinging cheerleader Cheryl and her teammates to shake things up in a very different way. Before Ike knows it, creatures attack, cheerleaders disappear, and the situation escalates from there. Ike can only pray this is all a bad dream.

Ike's journey is the basis for Silent Hill: Paint It Black, the next installment of IDW Publishing's successful spin-offs based on Konami's smash-hit video game. This latest chapter is again written by Scott Ciencin, returning for his third tour of duty at Silent Hill. The art is by Shaun Thomas, who also illustrated the last 48-page Silent Hill installment, Silent Hill: Among The Damned.

"The Silent Hill universe continues to be an endless source of inspiration for us here at IDW," says editor Kris Oprisko. "With Paint it Black, Scott and Shaun are presenting what may be the most chilling glimpse yet inside the evil that abides there. You'll want to read this one with the lights on!"

Silent Hill: Paint It Black is a full-color, 48-page one-shot on sale in February 2005.
