LA PREMIADA SERIE DE TERROR DE AMY CHU Y SOO LEE CONCLUYE EN “CARMILLA: THE ETERNAL”

 

Dark Horse Books y Berger Books presentan el tercer y último volumen de la serie ganadora del premio Bram Stoker de Amy Chu y Soo Lee, Carmilla: The Eternal. Escrito por Chu (DOTA: Dragon’s Blood, Wonder Woman), ilustrado por Lee (The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos, Thundercats: Cheetara) y rotulado por Sal Cipriano (Carmilla: The Last Vampire Hunter, Invisible Kingdom), este capítulo final es un thriller seductor y sobrenatural que examina los temas de la mortalidad y las relaciones madre/hija.

Carmilla: The Eternal sigue a la hija de Athena Lo, Ella, en su viaje a Oxford, Inglaterra, donde un misterioso benefactor universitario la contrata para lo que parece un simple puesto de investigación. En cambio, se ve conducida directamente al corazón del peligro, lo que hace que la familia Lo vuelva a caer en la traicionera red de Carmilla. A medida que las muertes comienzan a acumularse en el campus, Ella se enreda con una sociedad sobrenatural secreta de inmortales fiesteros. Y, tal como lo hizo Athena una vez, Ella está a punto de descubrir sus propios secretos familiares oscuros.

"Resulta surrealista pensar, cuando le presenté el concepto original como una trilogía a Karen Berger hace cinco años, que aquí estamos, en realidad al final de este fantástico viaje", dijo Chu. "Estoy asombrada y agradecida de que nuestra versión de este clásico haya resonado en tanta gente".

Lee agregó: "Esta tercera entrega de Carmilla es la final de la serie, pero no la última de su nombre. Quería que las imágenes tuvieran un impacto final y cambiaran las cosas. “Fue un honor devolverle la vida a Carmilla en esta nueva versión y estoy muy orgullosa de mi equipo por crear este universo conmigo. Gracias a los lectores que siguieron este inquietante viaje”.

“Ha sido muy emocionante trabajar con Amy Chu y Soo Lee en su nueva versión de la legendaria novela de vampiros Carmilla”, dijo Karen Berger. “Este capítulo final revelador y propulsivo es un final rico y gratificante para su historia de varias partes sobre la obsesión, el horror y la complicada dinámica de la conexión familiar”.

El final de esta trilogía feminista gótica comienza el 7 de octubre de 2025, cuando Carmilla Volumen 3: The Eternal (libro de bolsillo, 112 páginas, 6,625” x 9”) estará disponible en tiendas de cómics y librerías. Ahora está disponible para preordenar en Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Things From Another World y su tienda de cómics y librería local por $19,99.

NOTA DE PRENSA OFICIAL ORIGINAL

AMY CHU AND SOO LEE’S AWARD-WINNING HORROR SERIES CONCLUDES IN “CARMILLA: THE ETERNAL”  Arriving in stores Fall 2025       MILWAUKIE, Ore., (March 4, 2025)— Dark Horse Books and Berger Books presents the third and final volume in Amy Chu and Soo Lee’s Bram Stoker Award-winning series, Carmilla: The Eternal. Written by Chu (DOTA: Dragon’s Blood, Wonder Woman), illustrated by Lee (The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos, Thundercats: Cheetara), and lettered by Sal Cipriano (Carmilla: The Last Vampire Hunter, Invisible Kingdom), this final chapter is a seductive, supernatural thriller examining themes of mortality and mother/daughter relationships.   Carmilla: The Eternal follows Athena Lo’s daughter, Ella, as she journeys to Oxford, England, where a mysterious university benefactor hires her for what seems like a simple research position. Instead, she is led straight into the heart of danger, weaving the Lo family back into the Carmilla’s treacherous web. As deaths begin to pile up on campus, Ella becomes entangled with a secret supernatural society of hard-partying immortals. And just as Athena once did, Ella is about to discover dark family secrets of her own.   “It feels surreal to think, when I pitched the original concept as a trilogy to Karen Berger five years ago that here we are, actually at the end of this fantastic journey, said Chu. “I'm amazed and grateful that our take on this classic has resonated with so many folks.”    Lee added, “This third installation to Carmilla is the final to the series but not the last of her name. I wanted the visuals to pack a final punch and turn things on its head. It was an honor to bring Carmilla back to life in this retelling and I'm so proud of my team for creating this universe with me.  Thank you to the readers who followed through this haunting journey.”   “It’s been such a thrill working with Amy Chu and Soo Lee on their reimagined vision of the legendary Carmilla vampire novella,” said Karen Berger. “This propulsive and revelatory final chapter is a rich and rewarding finale to their multi-part tale of obsession, horror and the complicated dynamic of family connection."   The finale to this gothic feminist trilogy begins on October 7, 2025 when Carmilla Volume 3: The Eternal (paperback, 112 pages, 6.625” x 9”) will be available in comics shops and bookstores. It is now available to preorder at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Things From Another World, and your local comic shop and bookstore for $19.99. Praise for Amy Chu and Soo Lee’s Carmilla series:   “With its eye-popping fight sequences and nuanced ruminations on queerness and Chinese American history, Carmilla: The Last Vampire Hunter is a worthy addition to our vampire Renaissance today.”––AIPT Comics   “Chu’s writing beautifully captures the everyday culture of Manhattan Chinatown, seamlessly weaving the dangers of gentrification with the vampire metaphor. The title of the graphic novel comes from Sheridan Le Fanu’s novella of the same name, and it stays true to the original as a lesbian vampire story. But make no mistake, Carmilla: The First Vampire has its own unique story to tell.”––Nerdist   “A sophisticated and modern reimagining of one of the great classics of the horror genre… a vampire story you do not want to miss.”––James Tynion IV (Something is Killing the Children, The Woods)   “Amy Chu and Soo Lee have cut a perfect gem of a story from the collective unconscious, with an archetypal monster that’s at once both deeply mysterious and itchingly familiar like anything that truly haunts us.”––Lilah Sturges (House of Mystery, The Science of Ghosts) “Carmilla is an itch in the back of your head, the horror of knowing something’s right behind you, whether it be a creature, a nightmare, or a terrible love. Amy Chu and Soo Lee weave a beautiful tale full of mystery in an unsettling New York. I highly recommend it.”––Chip Zdarsky (Batman, Sex Criminals) "The art is stunning, the monsters are terrifying, the vampires are lesbian. What more could you want? It’s sucking fangtastic.”––Southern Bookseller Review   "An important piece of horror fiction... Amy Chu and Soo Lee have created a brave new vampire book.”––Horror DNA
