May 31, 2018. Caliber Comics is proud to announce the release of four exciting graphic novels in Diamond’s June catalog for delivery to retailers in August. These books are currently available to order through Diamond Previews.
NOWHERE – Volume One: A fantasy-horror story in the style of Alice in Wonderland with a touch of Stranger Things about a girl whose dreams are literally becoming real. What starts off as a strange adventure through nightmares and dreams soon becomes an examination of trauma and recovery. When Abigail dreams, she goes to a terrible place. A world of blight and ruin, inhabited by a dark entity that pursues her relentlessly. Once these were passed off as disturbed childhood dreams, she soon finds figments of her nightmares bleeding into the waking world. And as she becomes further trapped in her dreams, Abigail finds that this strange world is far more dangerous and complex than she could have ever imagined. Collects issues #1-6. Color. A Diamond Spotlight Title. DIAMOND # JUN181615 $18.99.TIME GRUNTS – Volume One: The Monsters Within: October, 1944. Nazi fortunes appear bleaker by the day.
