Author: Ethan Sacks & Naomi Sacks

A Haunted Girl is a horror story that explores the real-life terror that comes with the struggles of anxiety and depression.

The fate of all life on Earth depends on a girl who doesn’t know if she wants to live.

Cleo, a 16-year-old adopted Japanese-American whose anxiety and depression drives her to suicidal thoughts, is fresh out of the hospital and trying unsuccessfully to reintegrate back into her old life. What she doesn’t know is that her real struggles are just beginning as she finds herself encountering an increasingly terrifying succession of ghosts. Is she losing her grip on reality…or is the explanation much, much worse.

Courtesy of writers Ethan Sacks (Old Man Hawkeye, Star Wars: Bounty Hunters) and his daughter, Naomi Sacks and artist Marco Lorenzana (Hulk), this gripping saga aims to be both a paranormal thriller and an inspiration to those who are battling their own, less literal, demons in real life.

Author: Dana Marie Andra

The legendary, creator-controlled horror magazine from 1969 collected at last!

In 1969, a feisty new comics magazine emerged to rival the popular horror magazines Creepy and Eerie: Web of Horror. Conceived by a plucky, independent publisher, Web of Horror showcased instant classics of horror and science fiction by such rising stars of comic art as Bernie Wrightson, Michael Kaluta, Bruce Jones, Ralph Reese, Frank Brunner, Roger Brand, and Wayne Howard, as well as seasoned veterans such as Syd Shores and Norman Nodel, illustrating stories written by Otto Binder, Nicola Cuti, and others. Now, over 50 years later, Fantagraphics presents the complete Web of Horror in one expertly edited and designed volume. In addition to all three published issues, this collection includes over a dozen stories intended for subsequent issues that have been rarely or never-before published, several long thought to be lost and recently unearthed. Among these “lost” stories is Wrightson’s “The Monster Jar,” lovingly restored by Frederic Manzano.

The Complete Web of Horror also features a wealth of historical and contextual essays, including the Foreword by original Web of Horror editor and science fiction novelist Terry Bisson; an account of the magazine’s origin by the late Clark Dimond; the history of the magazine’s rise and baffling demise by collection editor Dana Marie Andra; reminiscences by fanzine publishers Robert Lewis and Robert Gerson; and an Afterword by Richard J. Arndt.

“Death Ratio’d,” the latest one-shot comic by Mark Russell, Laci, and Marko Lesko presents a gripping, satirical vision of the future. When Arnold awakens from his coma into a dystopian future ruled by the merciless hand of social media, he quickly learns that in this new world, popularity isn’t everything, it’s the only thing. Garnering likes and upvotes can lead to unparalleled heights of fame and fortune. However, the stakes are lethally high – if your social approval ratio gets too low, one “thumbs down” could mean death, and trigger the bomb collar locked around each citizen’s neck. Arnold, bewildered and running on his last ‘Like,’ must learn to navigate this perilous social landscape, or escape it. “Death Ratio’d” is a darkly comedic exploration of our social media-obsessed society, where the line between virtual approval and real-world survival blurs.
