Written by Steven Grant. Art by Sebastian Fiumara. Cover by Jacen Burrows. This summer, Steven Grant, the man who showed Marvel how to do the Punisher, unleashes a new breed of killer. Who is Evan Knox? Anyone he wants to be. How do you catch a killer who can jump into any body he wants, do anything he desires, and escape without a trace? The only evidence of his presence is the poor confused owner of the body holding the literal smoking gun wondering what just happened. As for Evan, he's just chillin' in safety, the only indication of his departure is that the mindjump makes his body temperature drop. This specially priced preview book gives you a chunk of finished pages along with tons of behind-the-scenes work by Steven Grant and his stunning new artistic discovery, Sebastian Fiumara. 16 pages, B&W. Mature Readers. Cover price $1.99.

This is the early, self-published version of the story Derf later expanded into the acclaimed graphic novel of the same title. B&W, 24 pages, standard paper stock. Mature readers. Cover price $2.95.

Story and art by Derf Backderf.

You only think you know this story.

We all have that one friend we grew up with--the strange kid, the class freak, the one whose anticsamused and entertained, maybe even alarmed us--the kid who sticks in our heads even with the passing of the years. That friend is invariably left behind when we become adults, faded into memory and filed away with our yearbooks and other teenage mementos. But every now and then we might wonder whatever happened to that person. For one cartoonist who grew up in the small town of Richfield, Ohio, that question was answered without warning by every media outlet in the world.

My Friend Dahmer is the hauntingly original graphic novel by Derf Backderf, the award-winning political cartoonist and comix creator. In these pages, Backderf tries to make sense of Jeffrey Dahmer, the future serial killer with whom he shared classrooms, hallways, cafeterias, libraries, and car rides. What emerges is a surprisingly sympathetic portrait of a young man struggling helplessly against the ghastly urges bubbling up from the deep recesses of his psyche. The Dahmer recounted here, universally regarded as an inhuman monster, is a lonely oddball who, in reality, is all too human. A shy kid sucked inexorbably into madness while the adults in his life fail him.

We all know what Dahmer did, but in My Friend Dahmer Derf provides profound (and at times, even strangely comic) insight into how, and more important, why Jeffrey Dahmer transformed from a high school nerd into the most depraved serial killer since Jack the Ripper--coming as close as anyone yet has to explaining the seemingly unexplainable phenomenon of one Jeffrey Dahmer, Revere High, Class of 1978.
