Hollow Girl : Don’t Go Off Wandering Available October 25

#horror – #horrorcomics – #comicbooks – #HollowGirl – #LukeCooper – @Markosia –

Author: Luke Cooper

The original Hollow Girl is back, and this time it’s more than just a name. With Hollow Girl soulless and catatonic, Hannah – the vigilante’s former sidekick – finds herself a carer rather than a fellow crimefighter, ironically so considering her recent past. And when the time finally comes to get to work, Hannah is sidelined – apparently surplus to requirements. But while Hollow Girl is out protecting a computer hacker from an army of gun-toting mercenaries sent after her by the amoral billionaire the hacker disgraced, Hannah decides to play with her own supernatural ability – astral projection. When you’ve spent the last couple of years mooning the spirit world, though, it’s probably not a good idea to leave yourself so vulnerable. Written and illustrated by series creator Luke Cooper, Hollow Girl: Don’t Go Off Wandering – the 20th book in the series – is not just the blend of action and supernatural horror you’ve come to expect, but also an omen of the darkness yet to come.

Meschugge Available November 12

horror – #horrorcomics – #comicbooks – #Meschugge – #BenniBodker – @FairSquarecmx –

Author: Benni Bodker

Copenhaghen, Denmark, 1905. The small Jewish ghetto is living in fear as a series of murders is shaking the population to their core.

A young Jewish secretary is recruited by the Police to help them with their investigation from inside what they perceive as a very closed world. She quickly discovers that the murderer is using old superstitions as his template, leaving Kabbalistic symbols on his victims.

Can she take down the monster? Will she become the next victim?

The realistic art created by Christian Højgaard, gives a stunning look at Copenhaghen with its steep streets and a population living in poverty. The artist does not spare on depicting bloodshed: autopsied corpses, mutilated bodies, scenes in a butcher shop… Social violence meets physical violence.

By focusing on the Jewish community, the plot draws a parallel between the violence suffered by the Jewish community then and the rise of anti-Semitism, with its terrible consequences in the 20th and 21st century.

Meshugge (“crazy” in Yiddish) lifts the curtain on Scandinavian Jewish Horror like never before! It draws inspiration from both Jack the Ripper and rituals associated with Jewish culture, which are cruelly twisted by the murderer.

Following the tradition of “Scandinavian noir,” Meschugge offers a deep dive into horror, making it an appealing read for fans of the genre.
