I knew that Elfquest creator Wendy Pini was going to be doing a book for manga publisher Go Comi!, but I didn’t know it was going to be an adaptation of Edgar Allen Poe’s The Masque of Red Death” Interesting. Brigid has the details here:
The story of a wealthy prince who hosts a decadent party in his palace while a plague ravages the world outside, “Masque of the Red Death” is a science-fictional retelling of the classic Edgar Allen Poe tale. Pini promises the story will be “a walk on the dark side,” featuring strong Gothic horror, erotica, and the kind of intense romantic relationships between men found in the Japanese manga genre known as yaoi.
Um, OK.
