What is "gloomcookie"

Gloomcookie is a gothic comic series created and written by Serena Valentino ( Nightmares & Fairy Tales) and co-created by Ted Naifeh, who also illustrated the comic’s first 6 issues. The series functions both as a social satire on real-life Gothic subculture and as a supernatural fantasy.

Gloomcookie is irregularly published by Slave Labor Graphics. As of July 2008, 28 issues have been published, as well as a one shot special, Gloomcookie: A Monster's Christmas Color Special. Five volumes of reprints have been published, each of the first four including six issues of the series in trade paperback form, and the last one including five issues of the series.
