Finding that perfect sweet spot when crafting a good horror story can be extremely difficult. Lean too far into graphic body horror, and the story risks losing the impact of its narrative under the weight of its gross-out visuals. Lean too far in the other direction, focusing entirely on narrative and atmosphere, and the story could end up boring its readers. Luckily for Marvel, they hit the nail directly on the head with a story released a few years ago. It blended the perfect amount of shocking imagery with light-hearted humor and a fun, positive ending. Unfortunately for Marvel, many fans wrote the series off before giving it a chance, which is a massive shame.Contagion (by Ed Brisson, Adam Gorham, and Veronica Gandini) is a five-issue miniseries that plunged New York City into the depths of a terrifying fungal outbreak. When Earth’s most powerful heroes were helpless to stop it, the world’s fate seemed incredibly dire. For all of its strengths, Contagion was passed by, with many fans shrugging it off as a The Last of Us knock-off. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Fans of The Last of Us would have a tremendous amount of fun with Contagion. It may follow some similar beats, but Contagion is its own beast through and through and should definitely be given a chance.The Fantastic Four are the first heroes to fall to the bizarre being, the walking epicenter of the fungal outbreak. Soon, the infection erupts onto the streets of New York City, where chaos begins to spread. When even Doctor Strange, Iron Man and the Avengers fall prey to the fungal being – a fact made infinitely worse because the being absorbs the powers and psyches of every being it infects – it’s left to New York’s toughest street-level heroes to set things right.
