Collected together for the first time, all three volumes of the irreverent, no-holds-barred graphic novel about an STI that grants superpowers at a cost of only 6 months to live…

Death Sentence is an adult story featuring swearing, drug-taking, sex, violence and it’s blackly funny too. Snort your coffee across the room funny!

SEX, SUPERPOWERS AND SIX MONTHS TO LIVE!

Verity: frustrated artist. Weasel: struggling guitarist. Monty: rogue media icon. Three people infected with the G+ virus, which grants them incredible powers – but will kill them in six months! Will they fade away – or go out in a blaze of glory? From the streets of London to the North Atlantic, from muses lost to futures thrown away – Death Sentence is the jaw-dropping next step in superpowered storytelling! Funny, fearless and frightening, this collection of the hit series is an unforgettable comics debut.

More than any other series Death Sentence predicted the world we now live in, one of the reasons it was named Dreamcage Comic of the Decade (beating Umbrella Academy into second place). Work is underway to turn the comic into a major TV series, but nothing beats the magic of reading the original comics first.

This incredible collection sees all three graphic novels brought together for the first time in marvellous mayhem!

#horror – #horrorcomics – #comicbooks – #BeNotAfraid – @boomstudios – #JudeEllisonSDoyle – #LisandroEstherren –

By: Jude Ellison S. Doyle (Author), Lisandro Estherren (Artist)

Cora Reims lived the isolated life of a simple farm girl until one fateful summer day, prophetic visions brought her a visitor made of pure light… an angel. In the aftermath, Cora gave birth to a child, a Nephilim: the offspring of an angel and a human woman, seemingly imbued with evil itself.

17 years later, that child’s cherubic appearance can no longer hide his monstrous nature. Frogs boil in their skins as he passes. Crops rot. The townspeople live in fear, knowing that atrocities follow closely behind him.

Now, on the eve of his 18th birthday, Cora receives a new vision… Heaven itself has called upon her to destroy the abomination born of her own flesh and blood.

Be Not Afraid is a breathtaking new series from visionary writer Jude Ellison S. Doyle (Maw, Hello Darkness) and acclaimed artist Lisandro Estherren (Nightmare Country, Redneck). Equal parts feminist rage and folk horror, this descent into Hell itself is fueled by the mythological underpinnings of American Evangelical tradition, presenting brutal cosmic horror through the lens of Southern Gothic; a truly otherworldly journey that can not be missed.

Jennifer’s Body and The Neon Demon meet Sweet Paprika in LILITH, a super sexy supernatural mystery splattered with a touch of Maeve Fly – where the devil wears more than just Prada.

So hot, she sizzles!

Lilith is an immortal who’s been banished from her home, a dimensional plane suspiciously similar to mankind’s idea of Hell. She’s been posing as a model on Earth while secretly preying on humans… that is, until she runs into Penelope, a sweet bookstore owner with a tome that might hold the secret to returning Lilith to her dimension. If the mismatched pair doesn’t end up falling in love first!

Along with her oversized, 3-eyed monster cat Gordy — who also possesses a huge appetite, eating up all of mommy’s leftovers — Lilith has a hell of a time trying to figure out fashion, friendship, family, and feelings on the long road to get back home. But home may not be the same as it used to be.

LILITH collects the entire first volume, issues #1-#5, of Corin Howell’s devilishly delicious demon.

Watch out — she’ll chew you up!

Simplicity : A Novel Available July 29

#horror – #horrorcomics – #comicbooks – #Simplicity – #MattieLubchansky –

By: Mattie Lubchansky

From the acclaimed author of horror sensation Boys Weekend, a vibrant new graphic novel about a timid academic sent out from the walled dystopian security territory of New York City to investigate a cult in the wilds of the Catskill Mountains

In 1977, a group called The Spiritual Association of Peers decamps to the woods of the Catskills, taking over an abandoned summer camp. They name their new home Simplicity.

In 2081, scholar Lucius Pasternak, a fastidiously organized trans man, tries to keep his head down living in the New York City Administrative and Security Territory, which was founded after the formal dissolution of the United States in 2041. Then, he’s offered a job by the mayor, billionaire real estate developer Dennis Van Wervel, to complete an anthropological survey of the people of Simplicity for a history museum he’s financing. A wary Lucius is nevertheless drawn in by the people of the small wooded community, intrigued by its strange rituals and in particular by the charming acolyte Amity Crown-Shy. Born and raised on the compound, Amity is comfortable in their own skin, a striking contrast to Lucius’ repressed reserve. But Lucius’ control starts to slip when he begins to suffer visions both terrifying and sensual—visits from beautiful but nightmarish creatures.

Then, just as Lucius discovers that Van Wervel’s project is more sinister than it seemed, members of the community begin to disappear, leaving behind grisly signs of struggle. The denizens of Simplicity believe that a being they call “The Lamentation” is responsible for the attacks. Amity and Lucius set out to hunt for the creature in the dangerous Exurb Zones, a wild wood full of libertarian doomsday preppers, wealthy isolationists, and worse. There, they’ll finally discover the true threat to their way of life—and what they’re willing to do to stop it.

Explores links between the evolution of comics and horror through an analysis of the range of approaches and traditions that unite them.

Horror and Comics brings together an international collection of contributors to discuss how multiple aspects of comics (forms, cultures, histories) have contributed to the depiction and development of horror across many subgenres, including folk horror, ecohorror, gothic romance, and more. The essays also investigate how horror has informed the development of comics across multiple periods, places, and genres, spanning Brazil, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United States. The collection avoids a narrow focus on time, author, or theme to embrace broader contexts and issues that continue to preoccupy comics and horror scholarship.

By considering well-known horror comics alongside understudied ones, it re-examines and re-energizes established concepts such as the abject, the Other, and closure, applying them to diverse texts, contexts, authors, and audiences, and demonstrating the potential of comics and horror to encourage innovations of form and content in each other.
