"I Hate This Place is my favourite kind of horror comic. Well-designed creatures, natural writing with some humour, great art, intriguing setting and characters that I really want to live (but probably won’t). By the end of the first issue, I was completely engrossed by this weird world. Can’t wait to read more.” —Michael Walsh, The Silver Coin
LOS ANGELES 04/19/2022 — Today Image/Skybound unveiled a first look at I Hate This Place #1, the hotly anticipated new supernatural horror series from the superstar team of Kyle Starks (Assassin Nation, The Six Sidekicks of Trigger Keaton), artist Artyom Topilin (Ice Cream Man Presents Quarantine Comix Special), colorist Lee Loughridge (Deadly Class, The Good Asian), and letterer Pat Brosseau (Birthright, Manifest Destiny).
After inheriting a farmhouse, Trudy and Gabby are ready to start the next chapter of their lives together...except it’s already home to a mysterious force that’s attracted ghosts, aliens, and all kinds of supernatural beings for decades. Now, Gabby and Trudy must play by the “house rules” in order to survive the most frightening place on Earth.
