Sheffield-based CDComics is releasing a free ‘Taster’ of its digital titles free via Amazon on 30th/31st October 2012 – a sneak peek into a world of surreal murders and mysteries from the mind of their creator, Craig Daley.

Whether it’s demons, aliens, monsters or just your average human psycho that whets your appetite, the 30-page full colour digital comic, offered in Kindle format, has them all. It features six front covers and four pages from Meadowhell: The True Horror of Shopping, Spring Heeled Jack: From the Tunnels of Hell, the well-received Football Crazy: The Theatre of Nightmares on the Road to Insanity, CDComics latest title, Carnacki and Hannay: Eyam, the Plague Village UFO Mystery, plus samples from Manhattan 1930: The Man in the White Suit and War Nurse: Alone.

You can grab your copy from amazon.co.uk. The free comic is also available at Amazon.co, USA, Japan, Germany, France, etc.

“CDComics output has been nothing but a treat to read, Daley’s unique, dry wit is the highlight of his writing…” say the reviewers over at HorrorCultFims. “and when it comes to the closing pages, there’s no one else to compare.”
