Line 2: IDW has been publishing comics loosely based on [[Konami]]'s ''[[Silent Hill]]'' series since 2003 by two different writers: author Scott Ciencin and writer/IDW editor Tom Waltz. ~~===~~ '''Comics written by Scott Ciencin:''' ~~===~~ * ''Silent Hill: Dying Inside'' (2003) * ''Silent Hill: Among the Damned'' (2004, one-shot) Line 12 ⟶ 11: * ''Silent Hill: Hunger'' (2006) ~~===~~ '''Comics written by Tom Waltz:''' ~~===~~ * ''Silent Hill: Sinner's Reward'' (2008) Line 27 ⟶ 26: ''Hunger'' tells the story of journalist Douglas Brenneman, who dreams of Silent Hill, despite having a seemingly perfect life, with a decent career and a loving wife. The peace of his neighborhood is shattered when someone is inexplicably murdered, and, as he investigates the incident, he is inexorably pulled into the town. {{tropelist}} ~~----~~ ~~=== '''Tropes:''' ===~~ * [[Apocalypse Maiden]]: {{spoiler\|Connie in ''Dead/Alive'' and an unnamed woman in ''Hunger''. Both are incubators for Samael, the demon that the Order is trying to resurrect}}. * [[Cluster F-Bomb]]: Christabella. '''Damn.''' Line 36 ⟶ 33: * [[Downer Ending]]: {{spoiler\|''Paint It Black'', ''Hunger'', and ''Past Life''}}. * [[Driven to Suicide]]: {{spoiler\|Troy's wife, after discovering that he killed her abusive ex-husband}}. * {{spoiler\|[[The End of the World Asas We Know It]]}}: The setting of the second half of ''Hunger''. * [[Evil Albino]]: Whately, the Order representative. * [[Fetus Terrible]]: {{spoiler\|In ''Dead/Alive'', the main character's ex becomes an incubator for Samael. Also mentioned in ''Hunger'', but the poor woman isn't named. It ''could'' be Heather from [[Silent Hill 3]]}}. * [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: {{spoiler\|Troy}} in ''Dying Inside'', {{spoiler\|fellow soldier Aaron, and Dahlia}} in ''Among the Damned''. However, {{spoiler\|the latter reappears alive and well at the end}}. * [[Jerk ~~With~~with a Heart of Gold]]: Troy genuinely wants to help people like Lynn, but is too wracked by guilt by his wife's death to even help himself. {{spoiler\|Unfortunately, after sacrificing his life to let Lynn go free, he just becomes another one of Silent Hill's demons, a shallow manifestation of his womanizing ways}}. Subverted in that he's more self-destructive than malicious or harmful to others. * [[Name's the Same]]: Dahlia. She couldn't be any different from the game's Dahlia though. * [[The Power of Love]]: Quite possibly the only explanation for {{spoiler\|Dahlia and Kenneth/Connie/'''the entire world's''' survival}}. * {{spoiler\|[[Reset Button]]}}: {{spoiler\|Kenneth pushes it at the end of ''Dead/Alive'', giving him an elusive happy ending for a ''Silent Hill'' character}}. * [[Redemption Equals Death]]: A theme shared in both Ciencin and Waltz's comics. * [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: Lynn becomes determined to face her fears and leave Silent Hill. Lauryn seems fairly badass to start, but gets moreso once she starts using the Order's magic against them. Douglas may be a mild-mannered journalist, but do '''not''' fuck with his wife. * [[You Are the Demons]]: {{spoiler\|Kenneth. His lineage is key to the Order's plan. His father fell in love with a demon that pretended to be a human. But she was literally a [[Noble Demon]], "of a higher order than these '''animals'''". It's possible that she was actually one of Silent Hill's gods}}. {{reflist}} [[Category:Horror Comic Books]] [[Category:Silent Hill (comics)]] [[Category:Comic ~~Book~~Books]] [[Category:Comic Books of the 2000s]]
