Late last year, we gave Daily Dead readers the first details on Loving, Ohio, a coming-of-age horror graphic novel written by Matthew Erman (Good Luck, Witchblood, Long Lost) and illustrated by Sam Beck (Verse, Renegade Rule). Available from Dark Horse Books starting this week, we're thrilled to exclusively share an extended 10-page preview that you can read right now!
"After the mysterious suicide of their friend, Sloane, Elliott, Cameron, and Ana are just trying to get through the rest of high school in Loving, Ohio–a town built around The Chorus, a new-age cult that has infiltrated every structure of Loving.
As the group of friends deals with their grief, a series of murders throws them into a mystery connected to everything around them. Sloane and her friends have to escape a roaming murderer, figure out their place in the world, and deal with loss, all in the looming shadow of The Chorus. But through it all, they will find the cost of friendship and the adulthood they seek."
The 216-page Loving, Ohio trade paperback was released to bookstores today and will be in comic book stores on August 7th. You can find it on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, local comic shops, and indie bookstores.
“Loving, Ohio is the best piece of fiction I’ve written so far in my life," said Matthew Erman. "I grew up in a cult, as many people do and Loving, Ohio says everything I want to say on the matter. I am immensely proud of it and so grateful for Sam and the gorgeous book she created with me. I can’t wait for you to read this because I think you all are going to be wowed by what we’ve made. Thank you, thank you, thank you.”
