SCREAMING HORROR #1

In the early 1990's FantaCo published two comics by Gurch Singh: Tales of Screaming Horror and Vault of Screaming Terror.

The Gurch's wildly imaginative horror illustrations took the comic community by storm and now each of those original issues sell for well over $100.00 on the collectors market.

By popular demand we have contracted with The Gurch to release all the stories from Tales of Screaming Horror as the first issue in an ongoing horror comic series!

The Gurch has painstakingly re-lettered and re-mastered each page for the best possible reproduction.

He'll also be including some brand new, never-before-published illustrations done just for this issue!

These are some of the most sought-after stories that FantaCo has ever published and The Gurch is super-hot now - so don't miss out!

"History Lessons," a 16-page story written by Phil Hester with art by Scott Koblish with Tom Grummett. When one of Raven's college professors goes missing, Nightwing is convinced the Titans should investigate.

"What's "Normal'?," an 8-page story written by Marc Guggenheim with art by Steve Pugh. A charistmatic cult leader has been recruiting followers to join his "church," a highly suspicious organization locked behind the walls of a private compound. For Raven, freeing this vulnerable flock is imperative...the question is, how can she save people who don't want to be saved?

Now, Chris and her merry band of scientist-cum-pornstars explore the universe, each other, and the complexities of sex in MONEY SHOT!

A story about scientists having sex with aliens for the glory of mankind - and money.
