Last Kiss

    (Eclipse, 2001)
™ and ©1988 Eclipse Comics

Last Kiss is a rarity, a thinking man’s horror comic. Combining his skills as a professional painter and storyboard artist, John Watkiss takes a fresh look at classics such as Poe’s Black Cat and D. H. Lawrence’s The Rocking Horse Winner. He also experiments with original wordless tales, such as “The Lighthouse,” about loneliness, and “The Whirlwind,” about man fighting nature in the form of a tornado.

The seven stories in this anthology evoke every emotion from terror to absurdity, and Watkiss’s dark art is perfect for the mood he wishes to convey.
