Ah yes there's nothing better than looking at good old Edgar Allan Poe sitting at the pub and enjoying a tasty brew with an oversized anthropomorphized rodent creature (I would say a rat but I don't want to make a negative judgement).
What I love about what I've seen of this graphic novel is that while the cover art by David Hartman is great (I just love those monsters!), the interior pages by Thomas Boatwright have nice sense of humor to them. In fact Boatwright's work sort of reminds me a bit of the early comics by Phil Foglio. There's a several page preview of the book is here which is well worth checking out. Credit for the story inside of Edgar Allan Poo goes to Dwight L. Macpherson who you can tell has a clear love of comic books and tales of horror. Edgar Allan Poo will be haunting your local comic book shop's shelves on August 15th (published by Image Comics).
