"And... action!"

It's not only one of the most famous phrases of the last century thanks to Hollywood, it is the central theme of the one-shot "Lori Lovecraft" from Caliber Comics. The story follows a starlet who, in her early years found fame and fortune as a voracious vixen of the big screen on multiple hits of cinematic mayhem.

Taking the full text of the original novella by H.P. Lovecraft, artist Jason Thompson undertakes an ambitious task in creating a visual representation of the classic, complex story of Randolph Carter's adventure into the dream world.

“Where does madness leave off and reality begin? When Detective Ward Lovecraft is summoned to the remote fishing port of Innsmouth, Massachusetts circa 1937. To investigate a murder and theft of a dangerous artifact, he ends up caught in the middle of a local power struggle where the prize isn't the town, but rather dominion over all of humanity. Lovecraft decides to stay on to punish the guilty - even if that meant taking on an entire town and an ancient evil hell-bent on humanity's destruction.”

True to the original comics and graphic novels, the series opens with the background of the Lord of Dreams, the Sandman, who is also known as Morpheus; he’s been stripped of his power and trapped by a cult, left to agonize for centuries in a state of awareness, but unable to move. After a series of events eventually leads to his release, he embarks on an odyssey to retrieve three artifacts that hold his power.
