Evil Ernie: Pieces of Me

Plot

An Evil Ernie prequel written by Brian Pulido and drawn by Jerry Beck.

This series explores the early days of psychotic serial killer Ernest Fairchild, before he became one of the “living” Undead and the occasional paramour of Lady Death herself.

Although nothing excuses Evil Ernie’s savage behavior, this series offers a little insight into the reasons behind his bloody rampages, and why he tends to leave children unharmed even when he’s at his worst.

Escaping from a mental hospital, Ernest returns to his childhood neighborhood to finish the slayings he’d only begun years before. But Ernie is unwillingly forced to confront the pivotal memories that turned him into the killer he is now. Beaten and brutalized daily by his parents, the young Ernest was finally driven beyond the edge of sanity by the traumatic discovery of a hidden room, full of the corpses and remains of his father’s many other victims.
