MY FAVORITE THING IS MONSTERS VOLUME 2 DELIVERS THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED FOLLOW-UP TO ONE OF THE BEST INDIE GRAPHIC NOVELS OF THE 2010s!

One of our fav reads to come out during the tail end of the 2010s was MY FAVORITE THING IS MONSTERS, and we are so stoked to see volume 2 landing with us this week!

Set against the tumultuous political backdrop of late ’60s Chicago, My Favorite Thing Is Monsters Book Two is the eagerly awaited conclusion to one of the most acclaimed graphic novels of the past decade.

Presented as the fictional graphic diary of 10-year-old Karen Reyes as she tries to solve the murder of her upstairs neighbor, Anka Silverberg, a holocaust survivor, while the interconnected stories of those around her unfold. In Book Two, dark mysteries past and present continue to abound in the tumultuous and violent Chicago summer of 1968.

Young Karen attends the Yippie-organized Festival of Life in Grant Park and finds herself swept up in a police stomping.

Privately, she continues to investigate Anka’s recent death and discovers one last cassette tape that sheds light upon Anka’s heroic activities in Nazi Germany. She wrestles with her own sexual identity, the death of her mother, and the secrets she suspects her brother Deez of hiding.

Ferris’s exhilarating cast of characters experience revelations and epiphanies that both resolve and deepen the mysteries visited upon them earlier.

Visually, the story is told in Ferris’s inimitable style that breathtakingly and seamlessly combines panel-to-panel storytelling and cartoon montages filled with B-movie horror and pulp monster mag iconography.

THE COMPLETE WEB OF HORROR collects some of the bloodiest, sleaziest & most obscure black & white horror comics from the era of CREEPY & EERIE!

In 1969, a feisty new comics magazine emerged to rival the popular horror magazines Creepy and Eerie: Web of Horror. Conceived by a plucky, independent publisher, Web of Horror showcased instant classics of horror and science fiction by such rising stars of comic art as Bernie Wrightson, Michael Kaluta, Bruce Jones, Ralph Reese, Frank Brunner, Roger Brand, and Wayne Howard, as well as seasoned veterans such as Syd Shores and Norman Nodel, illustrating stories written by Otto Binder, Nicola Cuti, and others.

Now, over 50 years later, Fantagraphics presents the complete Web of Horror in one expertly edited and designed volume. In addition to all three published issues, this collection includes over a dozen stories intended for subsequent issues that have been rarely or never-before published, several long thought to be lost and recently unearthed.

Among these “lost” stories is Wrightson’s “The Monster Jar,” lovingly restored by Frederic Manzano.The Complete Web of Horror also features a wealth of historical and contextual essays, including the Foreword by original Web of Horror editor and science fiction novelist Terry Bisson; an account of the magazine’s origin by the late Clark Dimond; the history of the magazine’s rise and baffling demise by collection editor Dana Marie Andra; reminiscences by fanzine publishers Robert Lewis and Robert Gerson; and an Afterword by Richard J. Arndt.

Kori Anders’ summer job at a ritzy Santa Monica beach club is fun, but she doesn’t care about keeping up with the current trends, and she’s not interested in rushing around to all the parties.

She’d rather explore her inexplicable draw to the stars or hang out with her new friend, Victor Stone.

Her sister, Kira, on the other hand, is the most popular girl around. With the hottest clothes, an even hotter boyfriend (the Tate Fairweather), and a take-no-prisoners attitude, she’s Kori’s opposite in every way.

Their summer heats up when Tate’s uncle asks the girls to participate in an EDS study his pharmaceutical company is running.

During treatment, Kori develops some strange powers she never had before…and she might not be the only one.

Can Kori persuade her sister to trust her before it’s too late? And when a carload of teens with their own powers come looking for her to warn her about a creepy stalker, she’ll learn that trust is a two-way street!
