EDGAR ALLAN POES SNIFTER OF TERROR SEASON 2 #1 (OF 6)
(W) Dean R. Motter (A) Dean R. Motter (CA) Richard Williams
AHOY Comics' snarky anthology/desecration of Edgar Allan Poe returns for a new season-beginning with the ultimate Poe mashup! In Dean Motter's "The Tell-Tale Black Cask of Usher," the drink-addled writer falls prey to his own horrific imagination. HUNT EMERSON offers another slapstick "Poe and the Black Cat." A selection of horrific prose and pictures rounds out the issue. Painted cover by Richard Williams (MAD).
LIVES OF THE GREAT OCCULTISTS
(W) Kevin Jackson (A) HUNT EMERSON
Since the dawn of humanity, there have been individuals who want to mess around with Hidden Powers. Some were Mystics, some were Scientists, some were Charlatans. All were pretty bonkers. Including Faust, Giordano Bruno, William Blake, WB Yeats, Dr. Dee, Kenneth Anger, Mother Shipton, Madam Blavatsky, Isaac Newton, David Bowie, and, repeatedly, Aleister Crowley. Centuries of eccentric, bizarre lives.
