The despondent man thinks he's made a new smoking buddy in the cool, teasing Tayama, but Sasaki doesn't realize he already knows her! |
Dwellings Welcome to Elwich—an oasis of small-town perfection, where the schools overflow with cheery-eyed children, lovingly adorned homes line the historic boulevards . . . and only the crows can see the deep, festering rot that lurks beneath the pristine surface. Murder.
Demonology.
Possession.
Obsession. Elwich has them all on offer—and behind every dwelling awaits a horrifying new story to be told. Shock, terror, and wry humor pepper every page of Emmy Award-winning, Eisner Award-nominated cartoonist and animator Jay Stephens’s Dwellings. |
Presenters: Serah-Marie McMahon, Comics Editor and Marketing, Annick Press Katie Sainz, Director of Marketing, Oni Press Morgan Perry, Marketing Manager, Square Enix Manga & Books |
