Violet Rose

A short-lived but visually striking series from Bluewater Productions, Violet Rose (2007–2008) ran for five issues and centered on a mysterious young woman navigating a world of supernatural intrigue. With a moody, atmospheric tone, the series is most associated with writer and artist Ben Templesmith, whose distinctive, expressionistic style gave the book a haunting, dreamlike quality. Though brief, Violet Rose stands as a memorable example of Templesmith’s solo work and a cult favorite among fans of indie horror-fantasy comics.
