Snitchland : The Graphic Novel Available October 29

#horror – #horrorcomics – #comicbooks – #Snitchland – #TimMulligan –

By: Tim Mulligan

Based on a real place and real events, this sequel to Tim Mulligan’s acclaimed Witchland is a thrilling new graphic novel that follows the strange and sometimes terrifying events surrounding an apparent nuclear accident in “the most toxic place in the Western Hemisphere” – an event that kills one of the two dads of a family recently transplanted from Seattle. At the funeral, a mysterious co-worker lets his husband know that she had previously complained to management about the cause of the accident. What follows ventures into family trauma, political intrigue and the occult.

A ghost story and moving family drama, Snitchland is a suspenseful and cautionary tale about what can happen when one, or many, tries to shed light on the dangers lurking in a community – and unspeakable horror happens.

Told with stunning artwork by illustrator Pyrink, Snitchland is part of the Witchland Trilogy, a series of scary (and surprisingly funny) immersive plays, each also adapted into beautiful graphic novels.

Memetic : The Apocalyptic Trilogy Deluxe Edition Available October 22

#horror – #horrorcomics – #comicbooks – #Memetic – #JamesTynionIV – @boomstudios –

By: James Tynion IV

A deluxe edition hardcover collecting the original apocalyptic horror trilogy by James Tynion IV–Memetic, Cognetic, and Eugenic– all precursors for his later hit series like A Nice House On The Lake and w0rldtr33!

In Memetic, a weaponized meme leads to the utter annihilation of the human race within 72 hours. The root of this apocalypse is a single image on the internet, a “meme” in the popular sense. A meme that changes everything. In Cognetic, a powerful psychic being that once controlled one-third of the world’s population as a part of its hivemind, returns to humanity in modern-day New York City. Meanwhile, the young assistant to the Director of the FBI may be the only one who can save humanity, but at a terrible, terrible cost. In Eugenic, a new vision of humanity’s future arrives. When a plague ravages the world, one scientist discovers the cure and becomes the savior of mankind. Hope is restored, and the world rebuilds. But then people who took the cure begin having children who are… unnatural, and the definition of “normal” is forever altered. This deluxe hardcover collection not only contains the trilogy of self-contained horror comics from the GLAAD Award-nominated team of James Tynion IV (Something is Killing the Children, Detective Comics) and Eryk Donovan (Constantine: The Hellblazer), but acts as a precursor to the creative titan that would take the comics world by storm with the Slaughterverse, w0rldtr33, and The Nice House At The Lake. Collects Memetic #1-3, Cognetic #1-3, Eugenic #1-3.

In Circle of 6, Ashley Gibson inherits an old house on the outskirts of Salem, hoping for a fresh start after a personal tragedy. But what seems like a peaceful escape quickly turns into a nightmare as she uncovers the dark secrets of Marblehead, Massachusetts—a town still haunted by the ghosts of the Salem witch trials.

Six vengeful spirits, witches condemned and executed centuries ago, have been awakened, and they’re hunting the descendants of those who betrayed them. As sinister events unfold, Ashley realizes she’s at the center of their curse. With the help of new friends, she must unravel the house’s malevolent history and break the witches’ grip on her before it’s too late.

But the witches’ revenge knows no bounds, and their power grows with each passing day. As the line between the living and the dead blurs, Ashley’s struggle to survive becomes a race against time. With every revelation, the danger intensifies, leading to a final, breathtaking showdown where the past and present collide.

With stunning, cinematic artwork that brings this chilling tale to life, Circle of 6 is a thrilling, supernatural story of revenge and survival, where no one is safe and history’s darkest secrets refuse to stay buried.
