Publisher Description
Clive Barker's Collected Best Hellraiser, Vol III: " To Prepare a Face" & "Later"
Writer: Jan Strnad, CJ Henderson, Vincent Cecolini
Art by Mark Charello, Colleen Doran
First: "Why did it always have to be this way? Why did I always have to endure this torment? Why must I be the one to shoulder the burden of obsession?" A character actor goes to the ultimate lengths to make his monstrous characters perfect for the big screen. (1990)
And then: What he did not understand was that the negotiating the LeMarchand configuration was the the solution he sought, but only a piece of the puzzle.(1991)
A perfect cacophony of tales exploring the age old lure of sin, the siren song of desire and the quest for "order" amidst chaos. Like the Lament configuration calls to us all. From the second anthology of comics short stories set in the horror film milieu, collected in full color, from an all-star lineup of comics writers and illustrators.

Customer Reviews
A worthy purchase, PERIOD!
If you're a fan of Clive Barker's work & especially the Hellraiser series which is his most prolific piece, you will love this graphic novel! Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Collected Best, Vol. 3 is as it says, a collection of the best stories from his horror anthology series that was published by Epic Comics in the 90s. If you remember reading this series back then, you will enjoy seeing the best of the stories collected here and put on display which are beautifully rendered in the digital format & spectacular looking as ever.
One thing to note, I would definitely recommend buying the iBooks version of this graphic novel over the other formats. Compared to the Kindle version, it is very readable and all of the text scales well when zoomed in. This volume and volume 1 are worthy purchases & look very nice, but unfortunately the second volume doesn't seem to be as clear which is unfortunate.
Definitely pick this up if you are a Hellraiser fan, as well as a fan of Clive Barker's work. You won't be disappointed!
