Description

The official graphic novel adaptation of the horror novel by Stephen King and Owen King provides a haunting interpretation of the chilling, timely bestseller.

A bizarre sleeping sickness called Aurora has fallen over the world. Its victims can’t wake up. And all of them are women. As nations fall into chaos, those women still awake take desperate measures to stay that way, and men everywhere begin to give in to their darkest impulses.

Meanwhile, in the small town of Dooling, a mysterious woman has walked out of the woods. She calls herself Eve and leaves a trail of carnage in her wake. Strangest of all, she’s the only woman who can wake up.

This deluxe edition also includes a full cover art gallery, character designs, and notes from the creators discussing the process of adapting the story into graphic novel form with spotlights on specific pages.

Collects all 10 issues by writer Rio Youers (The Bang Bang Sisters), artist Alison Sampson (Winnebago Graveyard), and colorist Triona Farrell based on the novel by Stephen King (The Institute, The Stand) and Owen King (Intro to Alien Invasion).
