Tales of Terror!

A single-issue horror anthology from Gemstone Publishing (and later Fantagraphics Books), Tales of Terror! kicked off in 2002 with a collection of unsettling short stories. While its initial volume stands alone, the series' premise—a showcase for chilling, creator-driven tales—suggests a potential for ongoing dread. It matters as a compact entry in the horror-comics tradition, offering a snapshot of the genre's early-2000s revival.
