NECRONOMICON COMIC BOOK HP LOVECRAFT CTHULHU MYTHOS #2



NECRONOMICON COMIC BOOK!
RARE and OUT OF PRINT.

HARD TO FIND COLLECTORS ITEM.
FOR FANS OF HP LOVECRAFT AND THE CTHULHU MYTHOS!

Based around H.P. Lovecraft's "Necronomicon," the religious text featured in dozens of Lovecraft's short stories and novellas.

Now that the Necronomicon has been opened, writer William Messner-Loebs reveals the origins of the forbidden book of legend - and how its catastrophic influence will soon spread.

NECRONOMICON follows the story of Henry Said, an Arabic college student in 1920s Arkham, Mass. who is hired by cultists to find the forbidden tome and obtain the dark powers of old. In the course of his adventures, Henry travels the world as he traces the footsteps of the Necronomicon's writer, Abdul Alhazard, and makes a... dark discovery.

The history of the most infamous book known to man continues to unfurl! Student Ali Said is caught between the warring forces that want the Necronomicon's power for their own - but Said knows that neither side intends to leave the world better off. In order to save mankind, Said will have to plumb the mysteries of the book itself - and pray that he can do so without going mad!

Lovecraft's works have frightened and inspired generations of fantasy and horror readers, and NECRONOMICON will bring the same horrific adventures fans know and love in the way that only BOOM! can deliver.

"Lovecraft believed - and he was right - that the scariest things are those least understood. Thus he kept everything as vague as he could - the mythos, the monsters, even the horrid and grisly fates of his heroes,"

Gruesome interior art by Andrew Ritchie and scream-inducing covers by J.K. Woodward.

A RARE COMIC BOOK THAT WAS NOT AVAILABLE IN ANY MASS MARKET RETAIL OUTLETS AND COULD ONLY BE PURCHASED IN COMIC BOOK SPECIALTY STORES!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
