"On Free Comic Book Day back in May, Image Comics gave readers a first glimpse of a whole-ass new horror universe, courtesy of Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino's Bone Orchard Mythos. The first few books in this collection of interconnected stories do not disappoint. The mythology they're creating is meant to last for years.
Just last month, at New York Comic-Con, I got my copy of The Nice House on the Lake #1 signed by James Tynion IV and I felt a lightness in my chest, one that comes from being surrounded by like-minded folks who also love cursed coins and evil tentacle creatures and other heartwarming horror tropes.
Are people finally accepting that horror needn't be relegated to October?
Whether they are, or whether I'm just imagining it, my TBR is happily set for a while. Below, I share some of the series that will carry you through the end of the year."
