Out Now: The Somna Hardcover by Becky Cloonan & Tula Lotay
Welcome to Somna: Becky Cloonan and Tula's Lotay's erotic folk-horror epic about one woman's dalliance with a demonic entity. Whether that unholy tryst occurs in her dreams or in real life doesn't concern her witch hunter husband or 17th-century puritanical town, who soon brand her as a witch. Both Cloonan and Lotay write and draw the series, creating a surreal experience that weaves through brutal witch trials and otherworldly nocturnal unions.
Nominated for a 2024 Eisner for Best New Series and called one of the Best Comics of 2023 by Newsarama, Somna is a cultural event that few saw coming and even fewer will forget. Now the entire 3-part series is collected in book stores and comic book in a handsome hardcover available today.
