The Beauty (comics)

The Beauty is an American creator-owned comic book series written by Jeremy Haun and Jason A. Hurley, with art by Haun. The series debuted as a pilot story in Top Cow’s 2011 Pilot Season anthology before launching as an ongoing series at Image Comics in August 2015. It blends horror, crime, and science fiction, centering on a sexually transmitted disease that grants physical perfection but results in death after approximately 800 days, investigated by detectives Drew Foster and Kara Vaughn.

The Image Comics run published issues #1 through #29 between August 12, 2015, and September 11, 2019; two later issues were solicited but canceled. A one-shot conclusion, The Beauty: All Good Things, was released on September 1, 2021. The series was collected into six trade paperbacks, with the final volume released in 2022.

In 2025, Ignition Press relaunched the series with new issues, with Haun serving as creative director of the imprint.
