Original Short Story

The Graphic Novel:

  • The Old Ones are even more horrifying than they were in the story. Rafael Albuquerque draws them wearing human clothing but keeps their faces obscured. It's as terrifying as it sounds.
    • Victoria wears a crown, cape, and a mask that keeps her face hidden but her many tentacles still come through.
    • Prince Drago is even more terrifying by virtue of being a Half-Human Hybrid. He has human hair, wears a top hat and an Ominous Opera Cape but the tentacles popping out where arms should be are just wrong. Plus we never see his face; Victoria at least wears a mask, but the Prince's face is hidden in the shadows.
