By Duncan Rouleau

When an entity calling himself the Nightmarist appears in Beth Sorenson's dreams, claiming to protect her from forces plotting to twist her will, Beth's reality begins to crack. With horrors closing in around her, while awake and asleep, Beth must decide -- has she gone crazy? Have her dreams become ground zero in a battle for the future of mankind? Can she trust The Nightmarist? Her choices may cost more than her soul.

An all-new dark horror fantasy of existential proportions brought to you by M.Rex, Wildcats and Superman artist Duncan Rouleau.

Quotes and Reviews

"A surreal and distinctly existentialist tour-de-force. 'Nightmarist’ is a production of the very highest order."

— Neale Monks @ Sci-Fi Crowsnest

"Rouleau's art is especially delicious, with a detail and control that gives shape to the inky terrors lurking in the story." (Grade: A-)

— Tom McLean @ Variety

"(Rouleau)'s a versatile and capable talent, and NIGHTMARIST is a thing of beauty to behold."

— Marc Mason @ Comics Waiting Room

"'The Nightmarist' is pretty stellar stuff. Rouleau's black and white artwork is gorgeous."

— Larry Clow @ The Wire

"Those who like their comics to challenge their intellect and embrace innovation should get plenty out of it"

Grovel

"At first glance, this didn't seem like a book I would like. Yet, I did." (4/4 stars)

Pop Syndicate

"The kind of title you want to show and share with your friends. Just that intense." (Grade: A-)

— Carl Towns @ Paperback Reader

"The Nightmarist is the best original graphic novel released in years, and I claim this during a time when OGNs are popping out of the woodwork each and every month."

— Dave Petkash @ Broken Frontier

"The Nightmarist is truly a weird and wonderfully bizarre book."

— Greg Burgas @ Comics Should Be Good

"THE NIGHTMARIST is so bad-ass I wish *I* had published it. I've been moving them at my local shop by telling people it's 'SANDMAN directed by Michael Bay.'

But 'It's bad-ass' covers it for most people."

— Larry Young, publisher AiT/Planet Lar

Duncan Rouleau has LONG been one of my favorite creators in this field. His work has a look that's all its own... and frankly, it's BRILLIANT! He's a master of mood, composition, storytelling and layout. And his drawing style is so unique, it's mesmerizing.

I can't wait for THE NIGHTMARIST.... it's going to be amazing!"
Mike Wieringo
