In the forgotten corners of post-9/11 New York City, skittering shapes in the darkness prey on the people society leaves behind. College dropout Vin Spencer floats through life in a drug-and-party-fueled haze, until one terrible night sweeps him into a drifter's reckless war against the giant eight-legged horrors stalking the city. Jaws meets Arachnophobia in a new vision of creature-feature terror from Eisner-nominated writer Steve Foxe (Razorblades: The Horror Magazine) and dread-inspiring artist Piotr Kowalski (Bloodborne)!

Reviews
Spiders have eight eyes, in case you're wondering what the title refers to. We've got a pretty simple premise here- What if the Matrix was spiders. Or what if the Men In Black were spiders. That secret thing, that 'once you've seen it, you can't unsee it' thing? IT'S SPIDERS. Steve Foxe sets up some nice little character details without proclaiming anything, and Piotr Kowalski shows that his artwork on Where Monsters Lie was no fluke. His open art, with lots of line work, sparse spot blacks, and good facial cartooning works well for a story set in the dark.
Special appreciation for letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou for some excellent sound effects. 'SPLOORCH' indeed. Horror fans should try this one out. No hesitation necessary.
