Horror & ghost stories; Graphic novels

Aryan race warrior. A Mexican drug lord. A Korean hit man. A career stick-up man. The wrong guy at the wrong place at the wrong time. The puke Cho-mo-kiddy-toucher. And you! This ain't the Breakfast Club and these are ain't your new friends. Welcome to the Protective Housing Unit (PHU), home to some of world's worst criminals-many of whom so reviled they must not only be shielded from the American public, but the general prison population. This is your new life. Simon, a white-collar criminal, is a new transfer to Pensacola Federal Prison Camp. He's having a hard time adjusting to prison culture, and his newfound

friends

aren't all that interested in making his new life any easier. Everyone in the PHU has his own agenda; alliances are, at best, temporary; and even the notion of friendship is laughable. But all that is about to change. This brutal yet familiar life they've all grown accustomed to is about to come to an end as a mysterious stranger is transferred to their unit and these hardened inmates start to die... Horribly. One at a time. Manticore collects the 5-part prison horror comic series by Keith Miller and Ian Gabriel into one engrossing volume.

Keith A. Miller was born but not completely bred in Brooklyn, New York. When he's not busy corralling thirteen-year-olds (he's a teacher), he writes independent comics. He likes to play around in the science-fiction and urban fantasy genres but is not above a good slice-of-life graphic novel. He is the co-creator of Triboro Tales and Insensitives. His latest graphic novella, Infest, will hit the convention floors in 2015. He is a graduate of CUNY Queens College, where he received a degree in Comparative Literature and Cultural Anthropology, and CUNY Law School. His interests lie in telling speculative fiction stories of people generally not represented in genre fiction so that the plucky character of color will not die first.

Ian Gabriel is an illustrator who graduated from SUNY Geneseo with a Bachelor's in Studio Art. Manticore is his first foray into graphic novels, but won't be his last. He lives in New York.

Reviews for Manticore

Manticore is The Green Mile of gore comics, a splattery, face-chewing mini-epic on lockdown about life on the inside. -Grady Hendrix, Author of My Best Friend's Exorcism Manticore puts the Oz back in Oz. Brutal, charming, and unrelenting. Scariest in how relevant it is today. -JT Petty, writer of Outlast Dark, disturbing and nihilistic and that's even before you get to the heart of the story. Manticore is the type of mystery story that grabs you by the throat very quickly. Keith Miller and Ian Gabriel build a fully realized world within the walls of the Pensacola Federal Prison Camp. It's creepy and I found myself drawn in. -Jamal Igle, Writer/ Artist (Black, Molly Danger, Venture)
