Comics Shop Talks Macabre!

Macabre gets a mention in Comics Shop Comic Book Price Guide! 

"This black and white anthology from Lighthouse Publications features some creepy, ultraviolent, overtly sexual tales.  For example, a young woman finds that her haunted dreams have become a reality as she becomes a vessel through which a demon's evil spawn can enter the world.  In another story, the horrors of war are examined.  Definitely for mature readers!"

You can purchase the 2013 edition at Amazon.
