The Cask of Amontillado

The Cask of Amontillado is a macabre story of ultimate revenge by Edgar Allan Poe. This haunting and sinister work is illustrated by artist Jason Strutz, adapted for the comic page by writer Enrica Jang. It’s the perfect way to prep for the release of House of Montresor, a full-length graphic novel by the same creative team, and a sequel to Poe’s Cask of Amontillado, expanding and continuing the tale of murder and vendetta that the villainous Montresor only hints at, fifty years after committing the “perfect” crime.
