Ablaze Horror Comics September Lineup
ALMOST DEAD Issue 1
Story by Galaxy, artwork by Ryan Benjamin · SRP: $3.99 · Available September 6th
Somewhere between pure exhilaration and sheer terror is Almost Dead!
After having an accident on her way home to visit her family, Sara Walker awakens to find that the world has changed. Now she must travel up the Eastern Seaboard, using suppressed survival skills she learned as a child, in hopes of reuniting with her loved ones during a viral pandemic that has turned humans into monsters. Set in modern-day 2005, Sara unites with old acquaintances and new friends along the way, and her struggle to survive will be both an unexpectedly exciting journey and an absolute horror.
Relentlessly vicious, Almost Dead isn't your typical apocalyptic story. Tying in conspiracy with historical flashbacks and showing how perhaps everything we learned in our textbooks has been altered over time.
THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER
Story by Edgar Allan Poe and Raul Garcia, artwork by Raul Garcia · SRP: $16.99 · 112 Pages · ISBN: 978-1-68497-177-0 · Available September 13th
A traveler arrives at the Usher mansion to visit his old friend, Roderick Usher. Upon arriving, however, he discovers that Roderick and his sister, Madeline, have been afflicted with a mysterious malady: Roderick's senses have become painfully acute, while Madeline has become nearly catatonic. That evening, Roderick tells his guest of an old Usher family curse: any time there has been more than one Usher child, all siblings have gone insane, dying horrible deaths. As the days wear on, the effects of the curse reach their terrifying climax. In this adaptation, the celebrated animator translates the cinematographic language into the comic medium.
CHILDREN OF THE BLACK SUN, Vol. 1
Story by Dario Sicchio, artwork by Letizia Cadonici and Francesco Segala · SRP: $16.99 · 124 Pages · ISBN: 978-1-68497-181-7 · Available September 13th
Over the years, the black sun has risen twice. A dark dawn whose rays have done terrible things to people's minds, driving them to all sorts of horror. Twelve years have passed since the last time, and the world still fears the return of that inexplicable phenomenon. But fear is not the only legacy of those terrible days. All the women who got pregnant under the influence of the black sun have given birth to babies with some… peculiarities. White hair, ashy skin, abnormal proportions, and eyes as red as fire: the Children of the Black Sun.
Brightvale is a small town like many others. Here, the Children of the Black Sun are treated with contempt, especially during the days leading up to the anniversary of the two disasters. The hatred of their fellow villagers, terrified of a possible return of that horror, will push these kids to unite and embark on a hallucinatory journey to discover themselves and their true nature. But is the black sun about to return? Volume 1 also includes a cover gallery and bonus material.
