Preview Images from The Nightmare Factory Volume 2 Released
Thursday, August 28, 2008
MySpace Comics is featuring several preview pages from the story "Gas Station Carnivals" slated to appear in Thomas Ligotti's The Nightmare Factory Volume 2 graphic novel. This particular story is illustrated by Vasilis Lolos, and appears to closely follow Ligotti's original story path. Previews from the other three stories expected to appear ("The Clown Puppet," "Sect of the Idiot," and "The Chymist") are absent. Fortunately, the images provided from "Gas Station Carnivals" appear to uphold the relatively high standards of the last Nightmare Factory installment. The latest volume has a release date in early September. Like its predecessor, it should see a wide distribution in mainstream bookstores, something quite rare for Thomas Ligotti's works these days.
Additionally, the graphic novel is again being published by Fox Atomic Comics. They have their own MySpace page up highlighting information about The Nightmare Factory Volume 2's artists, story adapters, and literary originator. Read their information here for an in-depth look at the personalities behind the creation of this comic.
