Summary

From the horrific to the silly, Cthulhu Tales takes H.P. Lovecraft's style of storytelling - and often many of his familiar icons - and runs with them. At its most intense, it tells harrowing tales of horror filled with insanity, in keeping with Lovecraft's original works. At its most envelope-pushing, this anthology tells extremely silly stories that take characters like Cthulhu and run with them.A fun, wild, inventive, and often scary anthology horror series, Cthulhu Tales takes the familiar literary tradition of the Lovecraft-influenced short story and introduces it to comics. These terrifying tales are written by today's hottest writers including: the creator of the Sci-Fi Network TV show EUREKA - Andrew Cosby, EUREKA staff writer Johanna Stokes, TRANSFORMERS THE MOVIE screenwriter John Rogers, THE DAILY SHOW! writer Brendan Haye, Marvel's WEREWOLF BY NIGHT movie and the upcoming TEKKEN film - Hans Rodionoff, and SECOND WAVE writer Michael Alan Nelson. Featuring the most brilliant roster of artists compiled anywhere, Cthulhu Tales is a primal journey into a dark arena of horror.
