Dark Horse has announced the complete edition of Rachel Rising, the horror and mystery series by Terry Moore that will be published in December. The work, which combines supernatural suspense with a narrative style indebted to film noir, follows Rachel Beck, a woman who wakes up in her own grave without remembering how she died. A classic premise that Moore executes with a steady hand.
A 600-page volume that condenses the complete arc 📚
This complete edition collects all 52 issues of the original series, published between 2011 and 2016, in a single hardcover volume. Moore, known for his work on Strangers in Paradise, not only writes and draws but also handles the inking and lettering, maintaining total control over the process. The complete format allows reading the story without interruptions, appreciating how the author builds an oppressive atmosphere through silences and glances. The book includes a cover gallery and additional material.
Rachel Beck is having a worse day than you, and that's saying something for a Monday 😅
While you complain about your burnt coffee, Rachel wakes up buried alive and discovers a serial killer is on the loose in her town. But it's not all bad news: at least she's already dead, which simplifies life insurance paperwork quite a bit. Moore proves that dark humor can coexist with the rawest horror. Just don't ask her how she's handling the maintenance of her grave.
