🕯️🍷 ROMANTASY DANCES WITH THE DEMONIC IN GRAPHIC NOVEL THE ME YOU LOVE IN THE DARK
From Eisner Award-winning writer Skottie Young (I Hate Fairyland, Middlewest, Twig) and critically-acclaimed artist Jorge Corona (Middlewest, Transformers) comes the hauntingly seductive graphic novel paperback, The Me You Love in the Dark. This gorgeously rendered blend of horror and romantasy spirals into obsession, isolation, and unholy inspiration and provides the perfect read for spooky season from Image Comics.
Desperate to rekindle her creativity, a young painter named Ro retreats to a dusty, haunted Victorian house in the hopes that solitude will summon her muse. Instead she finds something else entirely—something watching, whispering, waiting in the dark. As her agents’ calls go unanswered and the pressure to produce mounts, Ro becomes entangled in a twisted romance with a mysterious presence that promises passion, purpose… and perhaps possession.
What begins as inspiration tangos toward infatuation—and then becomes something far more dangerous. This toxic descent into madness is like an A24 horror film by way of Jennifer’s Body and is ensorcelled in a slow-creeping sense of dread. The Me You Love in the Dark flirts with Faustian themes and offers a chilling look at the price of creation—and what we’re willing to surrender for greatness.
The Me You Love in the Dark trade paperback (ISBN: 9781534321144, Lunar Code 1221IM206) is available now at local comic book shops, independent bookstores, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Indigo, and Waterstones.
The Me You Love in the Dark is also available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, Google Play, and Omnibus.
