The sold-out horror hit of 2023 returns to the scene of the crime for one FINAL scare! Welcome back to Elwich-where murderous and horrifying secrets sleep just below the pristine surface, slithering in the shadows of this otherwise quiet and idyllic small town. The cute-creepy mashup from Emmy Award-winning, Eisner Award-nominated cartoonist and animator Jay Stephens (Secret Saturdays, Jetcat Clubhouse) returns from the grave for two more tales of small-town horror. Readers with coulrophobia beware: in this issue, creepy clowns are quite the scare! See for yourself the shock, terror, and fun that is . . . Dwellings! In Shops: Dec 27, 2023
SRP: $9.99

"As a young collector in the days before the internet, before our town even dreamt of a comic shop, I remember walking the train tracks on weekends, hunting back issues at garage sales and flea markets, picking up whatever I could find," said cartoonist Jay Stephens. "Though considered uncool, I was magnetically attracted to the irresistibly adorable Harvey comics… Casper, Spooky, Wendy and Hot Stuff in particular… and always kept an eye out for that one issue where they finally revealed who murdered Casper the friendly Ghost. If the definition of nostalgia is to 'return home in pain,' DWELLINGS is the most nostalgic work I've ever produced. And my re-imagining of that darker Harvey Comics backstory has festered and intertwined with my personal fears into something truly frightening." So, Richie Rich meets Something is Killing the Children in Riverdale?
