Halloween is always a big holiday at The ’Warp’s offices, and this year we’ve decided to celebrate with all you lovers of dark urban fantasy by presenting a digital sweet for your cyber trick-or-treat bag:
Head on over to the Free Comics page and download our latest offering: Heartstopper: The Legend of La Bella Tenebrosa #2, a 32-page, full-comic that features a script by Pandora Zwieback author Steven A. Roman (that’s me), and art by Uriel Caton (Pan and Annie’s co-creator), Holly Golightly (Sabrina the Teenage Witch), and David C. Matthews (Satin Steele). A soul-stealing, rock-star incubus named Corum de Sade has hit Manhattan alongside his band Hellfire, and de Sade has some nefarious plans in mind for the Big Apple. First, though, he’ll have to deal with a certain monster hunter named Sebastienne Mazarin…
Heartstopper: The Legend of La Bella Tenebrosa is the long-lost comic book “prequel” to our popular young adult dark-urban-fantasy series The Saga of Pandora Zwieback. Starring immortal monster hunter Sebastienne “Annie” Mazarin (currently Pan’s supernatural mentor), the short-lived series was released by Millennium Publications at the height of the 1990s Bad Girl Era, when a bestselling comic was determined by how much skin your lead heroine could display without being completely indecent. Originally planned for four issues, it was canceled with issue two—and now you can download that full-color comic for free!
Along with Heartstopper: The Legend of La Bella Tenebrosa #2 you can download Heartstopper: The Legend of La Bella Tenebrosa #1 (art by Uriel Caton and Alan Larsen), the first part of Annie’s comic adventure; and The Saga of Pandora Zwieback #0 (art and color by Eliseu Gouveia), an introduction to Pan’s young adult novel series.
Free horror comics for your reading pleasure, without having to brave the elements—now isn’t that a great way to celebrate Halloween?
