What’s better than a little Swedish horror/romance, right? No, you didn’t read that wrong, that’s exactly what Dark Horse’s Love Hurts is set to deliver.

Tennyson wrote, “’Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.” Well, Tennyson never met these lovers!

In this massive tome of romance comics with brutal, terrible twists, Swedish comics creator Kim W. Andersson, whose graphic novel Alena is currently being adapted into a movie, delivers a shocking series of short stories about love gone horribly wrong! Featuring lovelorn supervillains, psychopathic online daters, murderous reality TV show stars, and heartbroken cowboys, samurais, and astronauts, Love Hurts shows that no matter who you are or what you do, love can be one deadly bitch!

Hitting stores on October 28th, The Complete Love Hurts by Kim W. Andersson is packed with a weird mix of horror and romance that promises a series of twists in tales featuring “lovelorn supervillains, psychopathic online daters, murderous reality TV show stars, and heartbroken cowboys, samurais, and astronauts”.

Clocking in at over 200 pages and featuring a forward by B.P.R.D.s Peter Snejbjerg, The Complete Love Hurts  contains spine-tingling tales collected from books like Dark Horse Presents, as well as the Swedish alternative comic anthology From the Shadow of the Northern Lights, and a whole bunch more. With all that, you might think that this is one book that might cost you an arm and a leg, but you’re wrong because The Complete Love Hurts will cost you only $19.99 USD.
