RIVEN SENDS A SHIVER THROUGH
DARK HORSE PRESENTS!
APRIL
25, MILWAUKIE, OR—Riven, the latest tale set to debut in Dark Horse
Comics’ legendary anthology Dark Horse Presents, marks a new
beginning for horror fans!
Dark
Horse Comics recently announced the Riven graphic novel, the
third collaboration between cowriters Bo Hampton (The Legend of Sleepy
Hollow) and Robert Tinnell (The Wicked West), which
is slated to hit stores August 22. Riven’s three-part story beginning
in Dark Horse Presents #14 will serve as a chilling
introduction to their world of terror.
“Dark
Horse Presents is bringing together such a great mix of talent and
stories at the moment that it’s honestly an honor to be included in the
book. From all the chatter Dark Horse Presents has been
generating it’s clear the book is appealing to discerning, articulate
readers—and those are precisely the sorts of people we hope are attracted to Riven,”
said Robert Tinnell.
Riven’s Katya has been in a coma for five years, and when she awakes,
everything has changed. Now she is a gorgeous teenager with a mysterious,
gruesome past, becoming aware of a growing, terrifying power inside her body,
triggered by the touch of the full moon, eager to break free . . . Can Katya
solve the mystery of her blood-drenched nightmares before they become reality?
“It was
a great spawning ground in its original incarnation and I’m really happy to be
part of Dark Horse Presents now. I’m looking forward to seeing
the Riven pages in that format,” Bo Hampton added.
