About this Collection

This first volume of Poison Elves collects the earliest adventures of the sarcastic, chain-smoking elf Ith and his motley crew, originally serialized in the 1990s indie comic series. The story follows Ith's quest for revenge after the murder of a friend, blending dark fantasy with streetwise humor and a punk rock sensibility. Drew Hayes's distinctive black-and-white art and sharp dialogue define this cult classic from Sirius Entertainment.

In "Down and Out in Amineta," Drew Hayes launches his surreal, satirical world with a sharp eye and a dark sense of humor, introducing Lusiphur as he bonds with new companions—especially the enigmatic Jace—before a sudden, bizarre twist pulls him into danger when the alluring Farallah invites him home. The story unfolds with Hayes’ distinctive art and lettering, while Janine Johnston’s cover captures the issue’s wild, offbeat energy.
