Oh, man, I am so excited Alabaster is back. When I was more rightous, I read Dark Horse Presents monthly and fell in love with Caitlin R. Kiernan's Alabaster series. The Alabaster world is one that I admittedly never fully grasp, but the stories give me big feels due to how poetic and darkly beautiful they are. If you were intrigued by elements of Pretty Deadly but put off by how, well, pretentious it comes off, I strongly recommend checking out Alabaster. Issue #1 (of 5) of Alabaster The Good, The Bad and The Bird comes out Wednesday.
