Digital Nightmares of Providence Released

Nightmares of Providence issue 1 is now out digitally. Cover art by Gabriel Andrade.

Backers of the Avatar Press Providence Compendium Kickstarter are receiving their digital fulfillment of the Nightmares of Providence comic. NOP1 is a 66-page black and white publication with Providence/Lovecraft inspired images by Gabriel Andrade, Renato Camilo, Daniel Gete, Ivan Rodriguez, and Christian Zanier. The majority of NOP1 images are by Daniel Gete.

According to Avatar’s inhouse Comic Cavalcade store (where NOP1 is available for purchase), paper copies are due out July 10.

The Nightmares #1 credits page announces an additional series of Daniel Gete “pentaptych” variant covers (apparently five interlocking images), which have not been made public yet. See the Facts Providence page for annotations of the extensive NOP variant covers.

After the jump, Facts Providence shares a few of the new images from Nightmares #1.

Digital-Only Nightmares of Providence Bonus Terrors Kickstarter Is Out

Nightmares of Providence digital-only Bonus Terrors cover – art by Daniel Gete

As part of the Avatar Press Providence Compendium Kickstarter, some backers received the Nightmares of Providence “Bonus Terrors” digital-only add-on.

The 18-page black and white Terrors features artwork by Jacen Burrows, Sebastian Fiumara, Daniel Gete, Matt Martin, Juan Jose Ryp, Ivan Rodriguez, and Dheeraj Verma. It contains little directly connected to Moore and Burrows – mostly consisting of HP Lovecraft-inspired monsters (many extensively tentacled), mostly in full-page format.

Facts Providence will do annotations for Bonus Terrors, though there does not appear to be all that specific references. Check the Annotations Index and/or the Nightmares of Providence page for Bonus Terrors annotations – coming soon.

Avatar Press Announces New Providence Compendium Edition

New full Providence collection is on sale for $59.99 – cover art by Jacen Burrows and Michael DiPascale

Today, Avatar Press announced that the wait is nearly over; Providence will soon be available in a new single volume “Compendium” edition. The $59.99 480-page hardback is available to order today, and is expected to be printed in early 2021. There is a $29.99 paperback planned, but not yet for sale. There is also a new tie-in 48-page Nightmares of Providence Lovecraft art comic, available with at least nine different covers. There are also some new Neonomicon covers and a “gold seal Stella Sapiente bundle” of sealed issues of Neonomicon and Providence.

Avatar’s inhouse Comics Cavalcade store is selling the new hardcover, as well as several collector sets of these right now through October 24 – in advance of a planned Kickstarter campaign coming soon thereafter.

It appears that a lot of the new Providence editions covers feature artwork from already published covers. The hardback features the Jacen Burrows and Michael DiPascale art from issue 9’s Weird Pulp variant cover. The paperback features the regular cover for issue #1. The Facts Providence team will be posting/annotating new collection artwork at the Collected Editions page. Coming soon, there will be a new page for annotating Nightmares.

Find all the annotations and more at the index page.
