Collect All Three Story Arcs of Kyle Starks and Piotr Kowalski's Meta-Horror Series, Where Monsters Lie, for the First Tim in a New Omnibus Format
Dark Horse Books presents the Where Monsters Lie Omnibus, a new paperback edition collecting Volume 1, Volume 2, and the final chapter from the wildly successful Kickstarter of the hit meta-horror-comedy. Written by Kyle Starks (Devil on My Shoulder, Those Not Afraid), illustrated by Piotr Kowalski (Let This One Be a Devil, Bloodborne), colored by Vladimir Popov (Star Wars: Hyperspace Stories—Qui-Gon, Clive Barker’s Hellraiser), and lettered by Josh Reed (Powers 25, Arcana Royale).
About the Where Monsters Lie Omnibus:
Haven’t you always wondered what slasher monsters—the masked home-invasion family, the mindless unkillable monster, the serial killer trapped in a doll—do for those couple of years in-between their murder sprees? They’re at Wilmhurst—a gated community in the middle of nowhere where they relax—or try to—until they get the call to go out and kill again.
Connor Hayes survived his first slasher in summer camp. A handful of years later, he barely escaped a psychopath who built torture puzzles for his victims. Since then, he has been training and planning to run into these creatures again. He’s a respected special agent. And now that he knows where the monsters lie, he’s planning for war.
Where Monsters Lie Omnibus (paperback, 280 pages, 6.625” x 10.1875”) arrives in comic shops and bookstores on January 19, 2027. It is now available for preorder from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and your local comic shop and bookstore for $29.99.
