Creatures of the Night (comics)

Creatures of the Night is a graphic novel by Neil Gaiman which reprints two different short stories ("The Price" and "Daughter of Owls") from his collection Smoke and Mirrors with elaborate illustrations by artist Michael Zulli.

In "The Price" a middle-aged writer living with his family in rural England adopts a stray black cat.

"Daughter of Owls" takes place in some 17th-century English village, with a framing device set in Victorian or early Edwardian times.

The girl grows up as a feral child—because no human voice ever speaks to her—and when she matures her beauty sparks inspires the men of the village to make a disastrous plan to exploit her.
