Writer: H.P. Lovecraft Artist: Ian Culbard
A tale of terror unlike any other: The barren, windswept interior of the Antarctic plateau was lifeless, or so the expedition from Miskatonic University thought. Then they found strange fossils of unheard-of creatures, carved stones tens of millions of years old and, finally, the unspeakable, mind-twisting terror of the City of the Old Ones.

A Graphic Adaptation of Fyodor Dostoyevsky's Novel
Crime and Punishment, masterfully adapted in this graphic novel, explores the mental anguish and moral dilemmas of Raskolnikov, a poor St Petersburg student who murders a miserly pawnbroker. Viewing himself as a sort of Napoleon, a ‘super human’ above society’s conventions, Raskolnikov is convinced he will be able to deal easily with a crime which seems to him to be in the general interest, as he will use the victim’s money to do good. However, he falls prey to a paranoia that threatens his sanity. Where does redemption lie?
Dostoyevsky’s psychological novel is one of the classics of Russian literature. Through its extensive web of characters, it broaches a wide range of themes, revealing the author’s highly critical view of Russian society.

Sees colonial trader, Marlow, recount his journey into the heart of Africa and his discovery of Kurtz, a company manager rumoured to have gone mad. As the details of Kurtz's dealings with the natives and his state of mind unfold, the lines between perception and interpretation of madness begin to blur. Continuing SelfMadeHero's acclaimed Eye Classics series, Heart of Darkness is revived for a new generation in a format perfect for the graphic novel genre.

Original author: Robert Louis Stevenson
A Graphic Adaptation by Andrzej Klimowski and Danusia Schejbal
This version of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde presents Robert Louis Stevenson’s celebrated novel as a stunning graphic novel. Following theconsequences of Dr. Jekyll’s experiment to separate the angelic and demonic natures within him, the harrowing effects of his ensuing split personality transforms him from a respected member of society into a sinister and grotesque figure terrorising the streets.

As Dr. Jekyll struggles to wrest control over his alternate personality that takes the form of Mr. Hyde, the story builds to a climax that leaves the reader pondering the duality of human nature and its moral battle between good and evil.

"It was on the moral side, and in my own person, that I learned to recognise the thorough and primitive duality of man; I saw that, of the two natures that contended in the field of my consciousness, even if I could rightly be said to be either, it was only because I was radically both"

Banned for 27 years and initially published in a heavily censored edition, The Master and Margarita is probably the most important Russian novel of the 20th century.

The latest in SelfMadeHero's highly successful Eye Classics series, whose previous volumes include Romeo and Juliet and Nevermore.

A Graphic Adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe's Short Stories

The works of Edgar Allan Poe have enthralled and terrified readers for over 150 years. Their macabre blend of doomed romanticism, gothic melodrama and ghoulish destiny earned him a place at the top of the list of fiction’s greatest authors. Famous for his poems and short stories Poe, who was born in Boston in 1809, virtually created the detective story and perfected the psychological thriller.


Nevermore brings Poe to a new audience, showcasing his most memorable stories. Here Poe’s short stories are re-imagined and revived in this vibrant graphic novel anthology, where the cream of modern comics creators are let loose in the playground of Poe’s limitless imagination.

From the melancholy poem of lost love, The Raven, to the psychological terror of The Tell-Tale Heart and the fantastical detective work of Murders In The Rue Morgue, beloved classics are brought to life in vivid and exciting ways for a new generation of readers.

Nevermore brings together an eclectic mix of established comic talent and talented newcomers to recast Edgar Allan Poe's timeless tales of terror for a whole new audience.

Legendary writer Jamie Delano, the man who launched DC's Vertigo line with the critically acclaimed Hellblazer, reunites with frequent collaborator Steve Pugh (Animal Man, Preacher) to deliver a chilling modern twist on Poe's tale of arbitrary torture and imprisonment, The Pit and the Pendulum.

Ian Edginton and D'Israeli, having previously brought us the gothic delights of Kingdom of the Wicked, Leviathan and the War of the Worlds sequel Scarlet Traces, take us to a fantastical Paris of the future where genetic technology complicates the infamous case of Murder in the Rue Morgue.

The Facts in the Case of Mr. Valdemar, an eerie story of life beyond death, is brought up to date by screenwriter Jeremy Slater and artist John McCrea, whose credits include high profile work for both Marvel (Spider-Man) DC (The Demon, Hitman, Superboy), 2000AD (Judge Dredd) and Wildstorm (Jenny Sparks).

Leah Moore and John Reppion, fresh from working with Alan Moore on the Wildstorm-published Albion, lend their unique vision to The Black Cat, along with artist James Fletcher (Negative Burn). Meanwhile, Leah and John's Albion artist, Shane Oakley, joins forces with writer Dan Whitehead (Star Wars: Attack of the Clones) to bring The Fall of the House of Usher screaming into the modern day, in a skin-crawling tale of madness, mania and decay.

The master of deduction, Sherlock Holmes, and his acolyte, Dr Watson, are here adapted into graphic novel form - a refreshing transformation which seems elementary for books that have previously been made into films with suspenseful storylines and strong visual elements. Full of intrigue and witty characterisation, The Hound of the Baskervilles takes readers to the Devon moors, where Holmes has to use all his logic to prove that the hound seen near Sir Charles Baskerville's dead body was not the supernatural manifestation of a curse, but the instrument of an earthly murder.

After 18 years as a prisoner in the Bastille, Dr Manette is reunited with his daughter in England. There, two very different men - an exiled French aristocrat and a disreputable, but brilliant, English lawyer - become joined through their love for Lucie Manette. From tranquil London, the action moves through the bloodstained streets of Paris and soon all fall under the lethal shadow of La Guillotine. Once again Eye Classics brings to graphic novel life an icon of literature.

A Graphic Adaptation by Chantal Montellier and David Zane Mairowitz

"One stone-cold gem... creepy, elaborate and beautiful. [It] owes as much to the dark-hued surrealism of Jan Svankmajer and the Brothers Quay as it does to Orson Welles's influential vision of Kafka."
- The Independent 'Best Graphic Novels of 2008' feature (December 2008)

The Trial, reinvented in this graphic novel, is a chilling and bleakly amusing tale about Joseph K, a man who is arrested for reasons that are never revealed, and who maintains his innocence in the face of the judicial process. The story maintains a relentless mood of disorientation and quirkiness, right up to the surreal ending. It shows the aburdity of human nature, of people acting upon one manic thought after another without direction and without result.

Whether its author was truly a blind poet named Homer, who also composed The Odyssey - or whether the epic poem grew over a period of several centuries, added to by many men and perhaps women - is not known. And probably never will be. Yet it remains, after many centuries, one of the greatest war stories - no, one of the greatest stories - in all of literature. A tale of war between the Achaeans (Greeks) and the besieged Trojans over the fate of Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world - a test of wills between the fabled warrior Achilles and the war chief Agamemnon - with a climactic battle between Achilles and Hector, the foremost defender of Troy. A saga of gods and men, each possessed of grand desires - and all too human failings. The Iliad is both a whirl of scarlet action - and of the equally violent emotions that rule mankind.

Odysseus-son of Laertes, husband of Penelope, father of Telemachus, warrior-king of Ithaca. For ten years he struggled against men, monsters, and gods - kept alive only by his sacred desire that one day he might see again the homefires of his island kingdom. The terrors he faced were the stuff of legend. The towering, man-eating Cyclops-the languid Lotus Eaters and their taste that brought oblivion-Scylla and Charybdis, the twin terrors between whom no seaman could safely pass-Circe, the witch-goddess who turned men into mindless swine-the living-dead souls of Hades, shambling forth from the underworld in search of blood to drink-and Odysseus himself? He, too, was a myth-but he was also a man. And the hero of one of the great epic poems of Western civilization, whose story has remained exciting and modern for nearly three thousand years.
