Notes & Trivia[]
- Howard Phillips "H. P." Lovecraft (August 20, 1890 – March 15, 1937) was an American author of horror, fantasy and science fiction, especially the subgenre known as weird fiction. Lovecraft's guiding literary principle was what he termed "cosmicism" or "cosmic horror", the idea that life is incomprehensible to human minds and that the universe is fundamentally alien. Those who genuinely reason, like his protagonists, gamble with sanity.
- Dave Olbrich is the publisher of this series.
- Although the cover copy reads as just H.P. Lovecraft, the actual title of the series in the indicia is Lovecraft in Full Color. "Lovecraft in Full Color 2" redirects to this page.
