Young Lovecraft

An alternate vision of the biography of H. P. Lovecraft, this fanciful, gothic account imagines the childhood years of an author who would go on to write such innovative, weird fiction as the Cthulhu Mythos story cycle and the classic tome Necronomicon. Derived from the popular webcomic, each panel in this series imagines how Lovecraft’s childhood would have occurred had he been visited by the horrendous creatures that later appeared in his finest fiction. Fans of Lovecraft will enjoy this humorous view of a misanthropic boy dealing with bullies and literary rejection as only a gothic can—with a large book of witchcraft and a few miscast spells.
