“CTHULHU CAT” CONTAINS THE CUTEST ELDRITCH HORROR ON THIS PLANE OR ANY OTHER

MILWAUKIE, Ore., (January 31, 2024)— Dark Horse Manga invites cat lovers across the cosmos to experience a new take on the eldritch horrors of Lovecraftian lore in Cthulhu Cat! A one-shot, full-color gag manga from Pandania (The Evil Secret Society of Cats, Yokai Cats), this collection is a charming tribute both to Lovecraft’s stories and love of cats. This new English edition is translated by Zack Davisson (Kaibyo: The Supernatural Cats of Japan, H.P. Lovecraft’s At the Mountains of Madness) and lettered by Steve Dutro (Plants vs. Zombies, H.P. Lovecraft’s At the Mountains of Madness).

An ordinary Japanese high school student takes home an abandoned supernatural cat left in a cardboard box. Maybe he shouldn’t have meddled with kitties beyond human comprehension—after all, it had tentacles where its whiskers should have been! But it’s too late now. With no Elder Sign on the cat door, soon the pick of the Mythos litter starts to invade his house, as furry and feline versions of Hastur, Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep, and other adorable Lovecraftian horrors blast his mind, whisper impossible secrets, and generally get underfoot!

Ph’nglui mglw’nfah Cthulhu Cat R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagnya!

(“In his house in R’lyeh dead Cthulhu Cat waits dreaming, meow!”)
