Author: Marjorie Liu

The second volume in the graphic novel horror trilogy The Night Eaters from Marjorie Liu and Sana Takeda—the creative team behind the New York Times bestselling series Monstress

It’s been four months since the night of gore, chaos, and the failed demonic summoning that revealed the Ting twins’ unusual family background. Since then, Milly and Billy have tried to explore their new powers, but their parents, Ipo and Keon, haven’t been much help. Despite the lack of explanations, one thing is abundantly clear: The Ting family is part of a much larger supernatural world and something in that world is very, very wrong.

As Ipo and Keon are reluctantly drawn back into the treacherous high society of supernatural elites, their children find that dealings with the spirit world comes at a steep price—when the dead have unfinished business with the living, only blood can balance the scales. To save humanity and themselves, the Tings will have to embrace their inner demons.

Eisner Award–winning and bestselling author Marjorie Liu and illustrator Sana Takeda have done it again, spinning an epic tale of gods and monsters in Her Little Reapers that will leave readers hungry for more.

THE END IS HERE!

Six hundred million people. That’s how many fall victim when a mysterious techno-organic virus is unleased on Earth. Six hundred million infected. Six hundred million turned into mindless, rampaging killers bent on death and destruction.

And that’s just the beginning.

Cities. Nations. Undersea kingdoms and paradise islands. One by one, they fall to the monstrous hordes. Now only Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and the rest of the Justice League stand between Earth and utter annihilation…

But for how long?

Nothing they’ve ever faced has prepared them for an onslaught of this magnitude. Nothing they’ve ever seen can match the scale of the tragedy and terror that have been unleased. As heroes and villains, gods and monsters are wiped out, only one question remains: What happens to the World’s Greatest Heroes if the world ends?

New York Times bestselling writer Tom Taylor (Injustice) joins artists Trevor Hairsine (Red Hood and the Outlaws) and Stefano Guadiano (The Walking Dead) to unleash an all-new vision of the DC Universe’s darkest hour in DCeased. But be warned: the horror is contagious…

The Chillingly Weird Art Of Matt Fox Available October 3

#horror – #horrorcomics – #comicbooks – #TheChillinglyWeirdArtOfMattFox – #RogerHillPeterNormanton – @TwoMorrows_News –

Author: Roger Hill & Peter Normanton

Matt Fox (1906–1988) first gained notoriety for his jarring cover paintings on the pulp magazine Weird Tales from 1943 to 1951. His almost primitive artistry encompassed ghouls, demons, and grotesqueries of all types, evoking a disquieting horror vibe that no one since has ever matched. Fox suffered with chronic pain throughout his life, and that anguish permeated his classic 1950s cover illustrations and his lone story for Chilling Tales, putting them at the top of all pre-code horror comic enthusiasts’ want lists. He brought his evocative storytelling skills (and an almost Basil Wolverton-esque ink line over other artists) to Atlas/Marvel horror comics of the 1950s and ’60s, but since Fox never gave an interview, this unique creator remained largely unheralded―until now! Comic art historian Roger Hill finally tells Fox’s life story, through an informative biographical essay, augmented with an insightful introduction by From the Tomb editor Peter Normanton. This full-color hardcover also showcases all of the artist’s Weird Tales covers and interior illustrations, and a special Atlas Comics gallery with examples of his inking over Gil Kane, Larry Lieber, and others. Plus, there’s a wealth of other delightfully disturbing images by this grand master of horror―many previously unpublished and reproduced from his original paintings and art―sure to make an indelible imprint on a new legion of fans.

In the wake of a growing movement that questions whether the virus in the air is real, they are all survivors—they are all Breathers.

Created, written, and illustrated by Justin Madson, the full nine-issue series and bonus issue #0 are now collected together for the first time, with an afterword by the creator and an extensive cover gallery featuring the Breathers #1 variant cover by Jeff Lemire and Matt Kindt.

Author: Brian Hawkins

“THE VINEYARD is a family-owned winery that sows and reaps by the blessing of the great god of wine and revelry, Dionysus. However, the Vines family’s patron god requires complete devo-tion in the form of four sacrificial killings a year before each harvest. This has been done in un-fettered obeisance. But all of that changed when the family’s patriarch, Didache Vines, was in a horrible accident that left him paralyzed and in a wheelchair.

Now, the sacrificial and murderous duties of the Vines family have fallen to wife and matri-arch, Maranatha Vines. With harvest season fast approaching and the family short of their an-nual sacrificial killings, Maranatha’s struggle with her conscience puts all of her family – hus-band, son and daughter – in jeopardy.

Written by Brian Hawkins (Black Cotton, Believe in the Name, Don’t Ever Blink) and illustrated by Sami Kivelä (THE HEATHENS, UNDONE BY BLOOD, Abbott), THE VINEYARD is what happens when family values and otherworldly obligations collide.

INTRODUCING BELIAL’ S DEMONIC DAUGHTER — BELILAH!

Victory, Vampirella’s erstwhile lover and inexplicable object of interest to Lilith, is also the not-so-proud owner of the Belial ring. Why does that last part matter? Well, because the ring used to belong to a demon, it draws Victory to evil, and it’s mystically bonded itself to her — permanently. (Lucky her!) On the bright side, it also gives her nifty powers like flying, shooting bolts of mystic energy, and being able to transform that energy into specific shapes like she’s some lost third Wonder Twin. But ever since it landed on her finger, Victory has been wondering why so many demons are trying to kill her to get a ring that she’d just as soon not have. Now she’s going to get an answer, whether she likes it or not, as the ring pulls her into a head-on confrontation with an evil the likes of which she has never known!
