Greetings Horror Hounds,
This week we have opened the crypt and seemed to have fallen into an infinite hole that is filled with comics! Seriously, have you seen the list of comics that have been released on DC Universe Infinite?
We are taking a plunge with, well, the first 4 books of Plunge from Hill House! Hill House is an imprint of DC Black Label created by Joe Hill! If you didn’t already know, Joe Hill is Stephen King’s son. In other words, expect to be shocked and disgusted and appalled in all of the right horrific ways. Hill House comics are NOT for the kiddos!
I want everyone to be able to participate so I thought it would be fun to read Ghosts which was just released today as well. This is a DC Digital First and is sure to scratch those horror needs for people 12 and older.
We have 6 books this week but both titles are a quick read. Also, a quick note about Hill House books. There is an ongoing story at the end of each issue called Sea Dogs. @hashtag-goodtobejo has made a reading order for this story. I also cannot stress that Plunge, Hill House Comics, and DC Black Label books are for MATURE READERS ONLY enough.
Books to Read:
Ghosts 1 (2020) (rated 12+)
Ghosts 2 (2020) (rated 12+)
Plunge 1 (2020) (rated 17+)
Plunge 2 (2020) (rated 17+)
Plunge 3 (2020) (rated 17+)
Plunge 4 (2020) (rated 17+)
If you enjoyed these books and are excited about DC Black Label’s debut on DCUi I strongly suggest you join That Black Label Life.

There are a few new horror comics hitting comic store shelves this week! We might not be reading the books right away and some of them might even be discussed in other clubs upon release. Think of this as a preview of what might be lurking in the dark corners of House of Horror.
