What’s Happening at Graphic Classics —

 Now available (ahead of schedule) is the fourth edition of Graphic Classics: Edgar Allan Poe. The third edition of this, our most popular volume, has been sold out for several months, and we are happy to return the book to print in a revised and improved volume, with 40 new pages. New to the book is Poe’s eerie “The Pit and the Pendulum”, adapted by new scripter David Hontiveros, and illustrated by GC favorite Carlo Vergara, and “William Wilson”, adapted by Rafael Nieves and Dan Dougherty.


Returning is J.B. Bonivert’s unique adaptation of “The Raven”, which originally appeared in 1979 in Star*Reach, and was reprinted in the first and second editions of Graphic Classics: Edgar Allan Poe in 2001 and 2004. The adaptation was revised for this fourth edition, and Jeff agreed to also interpret “Annabel Lee” in the same style as a companion piece. Also included is Gerry Alanguilan’s chilling adaptation of “The Black Cat”, moving over from the out-of-print Graphic Classics: Special EditionAnd returning from the third edition are “The Tell-Tale Heart” by Rick Geary, “The Imp of the Perverse” by Lance Tooks, “The Premature Burial” by Joe Ollmann,“The Cask of Amontillado” by Pedro Lopez, “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Matt Howarth, and “Never Bet the Devil Your Head” by Milton Knight. With a chilling cover by Malaysian artist Leong Wan Kok.
