The Dark Web scares me. Frankly, the regular Internet scares the crap out of me to begin with, but the thought that there is a secret world beneath the Internet�-a dark, ugly dungeon to the Web that hides all the terrible and evil hobgoblins of the digital world�-fuels my nightmares. There’s a reason I limit myself on computers now.
But what if beneath the Dark Web lurks another hidden layer, a sub-basement level of the Internet, that is worse even than the Dark Web?
This is the unholy and truly terrifying premise to James Tynion IV’s latest horror graphic novel series, Worldtr33.
Back in 1999, a group of hacker teenagers accidentally stumbled upon what they called the Underweb. A small amount of time surfing the Underweb gave one headaches, caused one to feel sick, made you see things that couldn’t be real. Its source was a mystery, but they all agreed that it wasn’t human. So, they created a firewall and a website called Worldtr33 to protect the world from its demonic pull.
2024: a growing epidemic of brutal murders by young people seem to be caused by something that they downloaded. Only the group of hackers�-middle-aged and separated by time and geography now�-knows what the hell is happening: the Underweb is leaking into the world.
Tynion, who has definitely become the most fascinating writer in the comic book industry at the moment, has added another great horror series to his already impressive catalog of titles: Something is Killing the Children, The Department of Truth , and The Nice House on the Lake.
Volume 1, “Terminal�, collects the first five issues of Worldtr33
