Review: NIGHTMARE WORLD by @DirkManning & Friends

24-AUG-2011 Quick video review of NIGHTMARE WORLD (Image Comics/Shadowline) by Dirk Manning. The girl who doesn’t like horror takes a chance on a unique collection of tales that are interwoven in a way reminiscent of THE TWILIGHT ZONE. If you like Neil Gaiman’s SANDMAN, you’ll be interested in NIGHTMARE WORLD. Each story can stand alone and they can even be read out of order.

NIGHTMARE WORLD Vol. 1: “Thirteen Tales of Terror”
Delve into a NIGHTMARE WORLD of ghostly lovers, demonic abductors, vengeful victims, a sexy (but deadly) Cthulhu priestesses and a plan by Lucifer to rule the world with these thirteen stand-alone yet interconnected stories written by Dirk Manning and illustrated by a host of amazing artists from around the globe!

NIGHTMARE WORLD Vol. 2: “Leave the Light On”
Dirk Manning and friends return to showcase chupacabras, zombies, Sherlock Holmes, doomed Mafioso lovers, Earth’s last superhero vs Cthulhu(!!!) and more with these next thirteen stand-alone yet interconnected tales of terror about Lucifer’s grand plan to control all creation and make it a NIGHTMARE WORLD.

Written by “Write or Wrong” Newsarama columnist Dirk Manning, featuring re-mastered art, numerous extras and new in-continuity prose!
