SUGAR & Other Stories

A devoted yet amoral creature ensures a girl's blood sugar stays up. A gory ritual creates a charming woman's perfect smile. A neglected and overworked wife is slowly subsumed by violent fantasies. In this collection of short horror comics, cartoonist Joy San masterfully explores the ways in which we contort and control ourselves, balancing the bloody and brutal with unexpected levity.

"Joy San has one of the most unique voices in horror, and this collection is a perfect showcase for her distinct blend of charming and macabre. In turns delightful and disgusting, Sugar & Other Stories has something for everyone--as long as you've got a strong stomach." - Allison O'Toole, Shades of Fear

"San is a versatile stylist, veering from cuddly to vicious. Her whimsical humor and flair for the horrific make this a treat for genre fans." – Publishers Weekly

"...a phantasmagoria of striking visuals and offbeat perspectives, full of promise for a developing talent. Atmospheric and provocative." – Kirkus

"A true celebration of San’s incredible range, with something for horror fans of all kinds." – WWAC
