In bucolic Lakemore Academy, just being as far away from the troubled girls’ school his father left him in is good enough for senior Ellery, until a spectral necromancer appears in his dreams to smother his sanity, ravish his body, and interrogate his loyalty to the mundane world. POMPOISON presents the 8” x 10” oversized, full color, Volume 1 and Volume 2 of his trailblazing Trans-Gothic Erotic Horror comic series LITTLE DEATH, with Volume 2 in print for the first time.
This is a campaign to print VOLUME 2: PRECIOUS THINGS, a 156 page book, for the first time, to reprint VOLUME 1: DEATH AND THE BOY, and to print a Secret Variant Cover run of VOLUME 2: PRECIOUS THINGS for the first time.

In academic Lakemore Academy, being as far away from the troubled girls’ school his father left him in is good enough for Ellery, until a violent undead man invades his dreams to question his loyalty to his colleagues and smother his sanity. With his connection to reality fraying, will Ellery lose his mind to the ravenous sexual hunger of the necromancer and his thralls?
When I set out to create LITTLE DEATH, I wanted to make a very dark story where a happy ending should be impossible for the two main characters because there’s a huge power imbalance and a major abuse of power. Yet even with these elements, there’s an undeniable sense of being each other’s safe haven. This story has a nasty antagonist who still has a chance of being loved, and a trans man main character who is not misgendered by the antagonist. Although misgendering will happen in LITTLE DEATH it never comes from Callisto, but from other characters. Callisto’s effeminate nickname for Ellery references gay slang for a young gay prostitute. This comic contains gore, and imagery depicting self harm, suicide and depression.
