The Shadow Over Innsmouth #1

Argumento

During the winter of 1927-28, the Federal Government embarked on an investigation of unusual and unwholesome practices in the decaying seaport of Innsmouth, MA. Led to Innsmouth by the frantic and terrified reports of one Robert Olmsted, the investigation resulted in large quantities of the local community being moved to incarceration in undisclosed locations, the strategic demolition of certain areas of the town and, most bizarrely, reports of depth charging in the abyss behind Devil’s Reef. Years later, in an attempt to prove his own sanity and justify his continued fears, Robert Olmsted wrote an account of his brief time in Innsmouth and the horrifying personal revelations that he still has to face.

The Shadow Over Innsmouth is arguably one of H.P. Lovecraft’s most famous stories, and one that has been adapted many times, as books, comics, films, radio plays and even computer games. In fact, this particular adaptation by Blue Fox Comics isn’t even the first comic adaptation of the story in 2020 (Caliber Comics released an adaptation earlier this year).
