This darkly playful graphic novel imagines a night-long encounter between Edgar Allan Poe and his friend Thomas Evans, who tries to lift Poe from despair through humour, poetry, and death-haunted conversation. Atmospheric and visually inventive, it blends wit with macabre charm, ending with a postscript in which Norm Konyu explores the book’s literary references and Poe’s lasting influence on horror and his own work.

“Working with Norm Konyu is always a joy. His distinctive, iconic art style makes him the perfect creator to tackle a literary legend like Edgar Allan Poe,” said Louis Yamani, the novel’s editor. “What we love most about this book is how Norm is able to have fun with Poe’s larger-than-life (or death) reputation while remaining respectful of the man and his legacy, creating a heartfelt and visually striking tribute to one of literature’s greatest figures.”



Edgar Allan Poe: A Tale of Mystery and Intervention will be available on 6 October 2026, and is now open for pre-order from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books A Million, and Forbidden Planet for the UK & Europe.

From Aurora Award–winning creator Norm Konyu comes a graphic novel that dares to make the Master of the Macabre smile.

A darkly playful walk through the mind of Edgar Allan Poe, where humour, dread, and beauty collide this Halloween.

When theatrical producer Thomas Evans meets his old friend Edgar Allan Poe in a gloomy tavern, he has a mission: to pull Poe back from the abyss, if only for one evening. As skulls crowd the table and death-haunted ideas spill forth, Thomas counters Poe’s macabre obsessions with verse, wit, and impossible hope… urging him to imagine a life beyond despair.

This graphic novel delights with wondrous art, each sumptuous double-page spread reinterprets a classic Poe tale (The Raven, The Tell-Tale Heart, The Fall of the House of Usher, The Masque of the Red Death, and more) twisting familiar symbols into something both reverent and slyly subversive. The result is a work steeped in dread and humour, rich with atmosphere, shivers, and visual invention.

The book concludes with an insightful postscript in which Aurora-Award winner Norm Konyu unpacks each literary reference and reflects on Poe’s lasting influence on his own work and modern horror. Perfect for Halloween and beyond, Edgar Allan Poe is a love letter to the weird, the macabre, and the stories that refuse to let us go.

Pre-order it from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books A Million, and Forbidden Planet for the UK & Europe.
