“Some stories don’t leave you and such was the case with my short story, We are the Sacrifice of Darkness. When Boom! Studios approached me about writing a graphic novel, I immediately knew what kind of story I wanted to tell – one about family and sorrow, faith that survives in a world of darkness, true love and an indelible bond between two people with the world against them,” said Gay. “It has been a thrill to be able to bring breadth and depth to the world I created in my short story. We are excited to have this graphic novel out in the world later this year.”
The Sacrifice of Darkness OGN will hit shelves in October of 2020.
