PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Cullen Bunn is the New York Times bestselling writer of the Sixth Gun, Harrow County, Bone Parish, and Dark Ark series; Bunn has written for Marvel, DC, Valiant, and many others. Bunn considers himself a lucky husband and father, and was once the world's youngest hypnotist. His website is www.cullenbunn.com. Cat Farris is a native Portlander, an artist, and pretty sure she's just making this up as she goes along. She is supported in this venture by the world's most beautiful husband, the laziest greyhound, and an all-star cast of Helioscope studiomates. She has done art for various comics publishers, including Oni Press, Dark Horse Comics, and IDW Publishing. You can see more of her work at www.cattifer.com.
More macabre than spine-tingling, this fast-paced blend of humor and horror is essentially an against-the-odds friendship story. Though the quality of Farris' watercolor art alone distinguishes it from other full-color graphic novels, her skeletal, shadowy silhouettes are wonderfully (and unforgettably) nightmarish. Bunn's ghoul lore offers a fresh alternate post-Salem witch trials narrative...A fun story with art that'll knock readers dead. -- <em>Kirkus Reviews</em> Imaginative with the right number of chills. -- <em>Booklist</em>
