Abstract
Lights Out / The Box is a collection of short comics situated within the horror/mystery genres. My thesis and exegesis explore the challenges of conveying horror in the comics medium, with a specific focus on eliciting a particular atmosphere, sense of mystery and the uncanny, through the combination of illustration, text and design.Description
