About the series
From 1988 to 1989, Harrier Publishing released Sinister Romance, a four-issue anthology series that twisted the conventions of romance comics into dark, unsettling tales. The series was a collaborative effort among British creators Glenn Dakin, Trevs Phoenix, and Warren Pleece, who each contributed writing and art, infusing the book with a distinctive, off-kilter sensibility. A cult artifact of the late-’80s alternative comics scene, Sinister Romance stands out for its moody, atmospheric storytelling and its willingness to explore the grim edges of love and obsession.
