Book overview

Don't miss the pulse-pounding graphic novel adaptation of the bestselling young adult novel, Bendy: Dreams Come to Life. Based on the hit indie video game series, Bendy!

 

Seventeen-year-old Buddy has spent most of his life trying to escape the Lower East Side slums of New York City. Working as a delivery boy to support his family, Buddy wants to become an artist, a dream he's sure will never be realized. But that all changes when a delivery job puts him face-to-face with Mr. Joey Drew, the eccentric owner of an animation studio. Mr. Drew takes Buddy under his wing as an apprentice, thrusting him into a world unlike anything Buddy has ever seen before.

But not everything at the studio is as picture-perfect as it seems . . . Something is going bump in the night at Joey Drew Studios, something that leaves behind trails of thick, dark ink. While the studio frantically works toward their latest deadline, Buddy and Dot, the writing intern, team up to find out just what is tormenting the studio after-hours, even if it means tracking the trail to Mr. Drew himself.

Fans won't want to miss this horrifying grapic novel adaptation packed with panels that are sure to haunt your nightmares!
