Gideon Falls Vol. 5: Wicked Worlds
by Jeff Lemire, writer; Andrea Sorrentino artist; Dave Stewart, colors
Image Comics, 2020
The Black Barn got blown up in the previous volume, on the assumption that it would stop the demonic Smiling Man from jumping from one reality to another. But it appears that instead of constraining him, the loss of the barn set him free. The explosion has also scattered the group of heroes to different worlds, each with its own version of Gideon Falls. They are all hellish places, full of violence, death, and those damn cockroaches that signal the proximity of the Smiling Man. Everything leads back to Danny's house, where he faces a very strange homecoming.
