Blackwood #1

Evan Dorkin2018
From the multi-Eisner award-winning creator of Beasts of Burden and the artist of Archie and Slam comes this supernatural fantasy about a magical murder in a sorcery school.� When four teenagers with haunted pasts enroll in Blackwood College--a school that trains students in the occult--their desire to enhance their supernatural abilities and bond with others is hampered by an undead dean's curse, ghosts in their dorm, a mischievous two-headed mummy-chimp, a plague of mutant insects, and the discovery of an ancient evil that forces�our heroes to undergo a crash course in the occult for the sake of the world.� ''Evan Dorkin knows comic timing. As a writer, he veers between the bombastic and cartoonish, or delves into a more complex psyche with insight and empathy.''--Paste Magazine
