Written and illustrated in chilling and gripping detail, Dédales–the first volume of Charles Burns new graphic series– introduces us to a group of truly unusual teenagers who spend their time going to old horror movies, dissecting their nightmares, and having rambling discussions.

An official selection for this year’s Angoulême International Comics Festival, Dédales will definitely linger with you after you turn its last few pages; and its enigmatic and unsettling world will make you want to immerse yourself in 1950s horror films–where low budgets did not prevent a maximum of dread.
