TIGER STRIPES: "Zaffan (12) is a rebellious and carefree girl until she starts to experience horrifying physical changes to her body. Struggling to maintain being normal at school, Zaffan is in denial of her inevitable changes and tries to cover herself. Zaffan’s friends however attack her, when all hysteria breaks loose — one by one teenage girls drop to the floors in fits, turning it into a spread of mass hysteria across the school.

Rumors of a dark figure in the toilets have caused fear to take over the primary school, and a visiting Medical Officer appoints himself in command — his sole mission to drive away the demon that is haunting them.

He soon discovers that Zaffan may be the root of their problems and steps in to perform an exorcism on her. The whole community watches, as the Medical Officer uses extreme methods to shame and physically hurt Zaffan. And like a tiger who has been dragged out of its habitat and poked because we fear it, because we don’t know it — Zaffan decides to finally reveal her true self, her wrath, rage and her beauty, to everyone."

The George Bess Horror Collection: "Magnetic Press, the industry’s leading graphic novel publisher, is proud to announce the launch The George Bess Classic Horror Collection of classic OGNs, including the newest addition to the series, Victor Hugo's THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME,  Bram Stoker's DRACULA, and Mary Shelley's FRANKENSTEINnow live on Kickstarter!

These three bold and seminal tales totaling at over 200 pages each, feature lush and unparalleled illustration of Georges Bess, known internationally for his extensive body of work with notorious writer and director Alejandro Jodorowsky, establishing himself as a premiere visionary and stylistic chameleon at the height of the European comics renaissance during the ’70s and ’80s. While his illustrative talent and fluidity couldn’t be denied, the direction he would take a project was often unpredictable, an improvisational instinct that set him apart among peers such as Jean “Moebius” Giraud, Philippe Druillet, Milo Minara, and Claire Wendling.

You may think you know Dracula, Frankenstein, and Quasimodo, but you have not truly met them until you have experienced these hauntingly beautiful interpretations from Magnetic Press!

Each 9x12” hardcover features deluxe foil-stamped design elements on the cover, along with Magnetic Press’s signature curved corners. Printed on uncoated woodfree paper, Bess’s intricately detailed line art is reproduced at a stunning archival level of quality. These ultimate graphic adaptations stand above the crowd as timeless masterpieces. A limited edition, complete Boxed Set is also available exclusively through this Kickstarter campaign.

The George Bess Classic Horror Collection premium volumes feature linen textured covers, metallic foil design elements, and Magnetic Press’s signature curved corners. Each volume recaptures the gothic romance and horror of the original novels in a way that belies all previous adaptations. Not only does Bess draw faithfully from the source material, but he imbues each with a degree of imagination that supplements the details Stoker, Shelley, and Hugo were themselves inspired by.

In addition to your pledge tier rewards, all backers will receive a number of Ambassador Points for their total value. The Ambassador Point Program is Magnetic Press’s way of thanking buyers for their patronage through exploring other titles in our collection at discounted prices. Retailer discounts are available to those verified with a business address or link, and tax ID/EIN.

The campaign for The George Bess Classic Horror Collection featuring Victor Hugo's The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, ends June 28th.
