Haunt of Horror HC, Corben, Poe, Lovecraft, Marvel Max Comics

For sale two comic books graphic novels presenting one incredible collection of classic tales re-imagined by legendary horror artist Richard Corben which was published by Marvel's adult-only imprint, MAX Comics. Each adaptations is beautifully rendered in black and white with gray tones as only Corben can do it - along with a printing of the original source text by Edgar Allan Poe and H.P. Lovecraft. I am selling the two books together only, not separately. Excellent condition, Near Mint.

1- Edgar Allan Poe’s Haunt of Horror, Marvel Max Comics (2006), Hardcover and Book jacket, 112 pages.

First, it's Edgar Allan Poe as you've never seen him before. Classic Poe stories and poems are transformed into weird and disturbing new comic-book fantasies. It's a frightening new presentation of Poe-inspired murder, madness and monstrosities! Collects Haunt of Horror: Poe #1-3 and extra.

2- H. P. Lovecraft’s Haunt of Horror, Marvel Max Comics (2008), Hardcover and Book jacket, 112 pages.

Then, Corben brings you a bold new interpretation full of eerie new spins on the poems and short stories of H.P. Lovecraft. He have been plagued by the Lovecraftian combination of cosmic horror and flesh and blood (and tentacle) creepiness. Collects Haunt of Horror: Lovecraft #1-3.

Corben’s style is unlike anyone else, and it’s refreshingly difficult to guess at his influences. He’s the best artist imaginable to adapt the works of Poe and Lovecraft, and both are served well here with stories that add something to the originals, and hopefully help to introduce new readers to the work of two of America’s premier horror writers.
