Semiautomagic

Plot

Occult investigator Alice Creed has paid the price for using necromancy time and again, but in a world forever unleashing horrors beyond comprehension, Alice's spiritual debt continues to mount. This collector's edition of the hit Dark Horse Presents series includes both of Alex de Campi (Grindhouse) and Jerry Ordway's (Planetary/ JLA: Terra Occulta) original Semiautomagic arcs, as well as three brand-new stories! Alice confronts a college student possessed by a demonic video game, an army of evil mannequins, the most horrific inflight entertainment ever, nightmarish versions of children's fantasy creatures, and Hollywood occultists using the dark arts for more than preserving their looks. Guest artist Lara Margarida (Flash Gordon) joins de Campi for a tale of a manic pixie dream girl's disillusionment, revealing the secret history of Alice's unstuck-in-time friend Harriet. These five tales reach deep into the terrifying void beyond the routine horror of myth and legend, a void all too familiar to Alice Creed.
