"Planet Lovecraft" Preview from Unfilmable

Friday, May 29, 2009


The blog "Unfilmable" has posted a number of pages from the upcoming new issue of "Planet Lovecraft." This is a compact, but appetizing preview that gives a good taste of the type of personalities and talents lurking in this newish Lovecraftian horror magazine.

"Planet Lovecraft" is a bold new art and comic magazine containing original illustrated tales often reminiscent of H.P. Lovecraft's universe. It's worth mentioning, however, that several of the sample pages for the next issue depict a couple stories inspired by Robert W. Chambers' The King in Yellow cycle of weird fiction. It's unclear yet how purist the Chambers selections will be, but they may mark a first in adapting his works to comics, instead of being embedded in an exclusively Lovecraftian storyline. Already nearing the release of its fourth installment, "Planet Lovecraft" looks set to provide a promising new and independent outlet for publishing Lovecraftian tales and works of weird fiction in comic form.
