Description: ABLAZE PUBLISHING “He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby becomes a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.” - Friedrich Nietzsche Issue #1 Regular and Incentive 1:10 Virgin Variant Set Something is Killing The Children's WERTHER DELL'EDERA darkly brings to life a story by FRANCESCO ARTIBANI set in a just-liberated Prague on a Halloween Night, in 1945, in the very early days post-World War II. Nazis and German citizens still exist within the city, and the Czechoslovakian locals have begun taking brutal revenge on those in the area. Amidst the violence, a Russian soldier is told an eerie tale about Jewish refugees hiding in the catacombs beneath Prague's streets and the golem they once brought to life to protect them from Nazi soldiers. Historically accurate and set in both a place and a time that is seldom visited in comics, He Who Fights with Monsters is a unique experience tailored for Dell'Edera's artistic style. While fans of Mike Mignola's work and horror comics in general will be familiar with Golems and Jewish mysticism, Artibani is an informed storyteller who offers interesting Easter Eggs for those knowledgeable about the topic. PS. This Ablaze comic book series should not to be confused with the LitRPG book, He Who Fights With Monsters by Shirtaloon. It's an entirely different thing :) From ABLAZE PUBLISHING: On All Hallows' Eve, a community struggles under the boot of the Nazi war machine when supernatural forces come to play a part in the conflict! From the artist of the bestselling Something is Killing the Children comes a Halloween tale that will send shivers up your spine... It's World War 2 and the struggle between good and evil is in full force. In Prague, the great Bohemian city is being oppressed by the Nazi occupation and the population lives in terror, while the resistance forces try to organize themselves in the shadows. It is an almost impossible task. With the ruthless SS tightening their grip on every street and neighborhood with overwhelming might, only one hope feeds the struggle. A crazy hope, which rests on the fragile foundations of an ancient, monstrous legend... Give your collection what it deserves today!
