FADE TO BLACK COLLECTED FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME!

 

BIRMINGHAM, UK, September 20, 2014 – Short, Scary Tales Publications (SST Publications) Owner, Paul Fry is very proud to announce the publication of award-winning author Jeff Mariotte’s acclaimed horror comic miniseries Fade to Black. Originally published as a 5-issue comic miniseries by Image Comics in 2010, this is the first time it has ever been collected and published together, as it was originally intended. The book is a beautiful full-colour hardcover, gorgeously illustrated by award-winning artist and comic book illustrator Daniele Serra. New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Maberry contributed a new introduction, and the book features a new foreword by the author.

About the collected edition, Mariotte said, “Fade to Black was a dark and twisted story I wanted to tell for a long time, and with Daniele Serra, I found the perfect partner. Now we both have the perfect publisher with Paul Fry and SST Publications, who has put it all together as it was always meant to be seen. I couldn’t be more proud.”

The book is available now from all good booksellers and also direct from the publisher’s web site at www.sstpublications.co.uk.
