Sand and Fury A Scream Queen Adventure SC (2010 Fantagraphics) comic books 2010

1st printing. AN ORIGINAL HORROR GRAPHIC NOVEL FROM THE CREATOR OF KING - scream Queen is a story of blood, of sex, of death - of sound and retribution. It opens as a girl by the side of a desert road accepts a ride from a stranger. How could she know that behind that wheel sits the angel of death? Of course, even the angel of death once had a life. During that life, death was a successful business woman, with a great career and an even greater future. It's true she could be a little cavalier with her innate gifts; she had, after all, broken the heart of everyone who had ever loved her. And then, one day - the monster entered the woman's life and changed everything forever. Inspired by the work of filmmakers like David Lynch and Dario Argento and cartoonists like Richard Sala and Charles Burns, a spiritual cousin to Roman Polanski's Repulsion and The Tenant, sand & Fury is at once an homage to those classic horror sources and a contemporary romantic thriller, drawn in a stark, chiseled, expressionistic line that evokes an modern attitudes and classic terror at the unknown and unknowable. Softcover, 7 1/2-in. x 9-in., 132 pages, PC/PB&W. Mature Readers Cover price $16.99.
