Description
A vampire?! Don't be ridiculous! That's my cousin!
When naive Camillia is invited by her long-lost cousin Frédérique to return to the old manor house where she spent the best summer of her childhood, she's delighted. But nothing in the sinister landscape corresponds to her fond memories, and the wary villagers at the local tavern seem to fear the place they call the "Devil's House." As for the mysterious Frédérique, she's become moody and dark, and for some reason she can't stand Camillia's famous garlic quiche...
A loving tribute to old-school horror, Vampire Cousins is a bloody cute comedy masterpiece!

Cathon has been making waves both as a cartoonist and an illustrator, creating comics for children and grown-ups alike. Her graphic novels include The Pineapples of Wrath, The Adventures of Sgoobidoo, and Vampire Cousins, created with Alexandre Fontaine-Rousseau, and the children's book series Poppy and Sam. She is also the co-creator (with Iris) of The Great List of Everything which was adapted into an animated series by the National Film Board. She is currently based in Montreal.
Alexandre Fontaine Rousseau does not draw, but he does write comic book scripts... Quite a lot of them, in fact. His graphic novel collaborations include Vampire Cousins with Cathon, The Conquest of the Cosmos with Francis Desharnais, La pitoune et la poutine with Xavier Cadieux, and Pinkerton and Poulet grain-grain with François Samson-Dunlop. He is also the author of non-fiction books Musiques du diable and Vieille école. He lives and works in Montreal.
