Anabelle “Belle” DiMarco is tormented by the pain and loss she has endured during her short time in this world. She has spent her life fighting the never-ending battle against evil creatures that only our nightmares could dream up.

But, when she is presented with a remedy for a wound she has suffered with for far too long—a cure for the curse placed upon her brother, Alex, which changed him into one of the very beasts she hunts– Belle finally has a chance, after all these years, to pull his humanity back from the shadows it has been imprisoned beneath. Blood runs deep, and Belle’s ax remains sharp, but could this be the last pursuit this beast hunter sets off on? Can she finally cure the Beast? Will she survive the price asked of her?

Don’t miss this adrenaline-soaked over-sized issue!

Sisters Sommer and Winter hunt for clues about how to rescue their parents from the monsters who stole them in the night. What does it mean that they were taken through “the Blight,” where is this mysterious Autumn Kingdom, who are the forest dwellers who so willingly sacrifice outsiders to the murderous fairies, and why does the giant sword they found in the underbrush grant them preternatural fighting abilities, as if it thirsts for goblin blood?

By: Christopher Priest

Picking up where Vampirella: Year One left off, Vampirella/Dracula: Rage presents Vampirella as you’ve never seen her before. Inconsolable grief hardens into unquenchable rage as Vampirella tracks the cultists who threaten her son across Europe and America, unsettling political and economic alliances and unraveling the global network of the baby’s father ― Dracula!

In a macabre exchange of norms, it is Dracula, the Lord of Vampires, who now hunts the elusive Vampiri in an effort to save Vampirella from herself ― or, more precisely, to save her from becoming like him. To this end, Dracula recruits Victory, once Vampirella’s closest friend, to act as his ersatz Renfield while they try (and fail) to anticipate the next moves of a woman whose anger has now completely consumed her.

This bold new limited series bookends Vampirella/Dracula: Unholy, bringing Vampirella’s conflict with the Prince of Darkness to its ultimate conclusion and setting up a dramatic change in direction for the Daughter of Drakulon!

Contains Vampirella/Dracula: Rage issues 1 thru 6

The Skin You’re In : A Collection of Horror Comics Available November 13

#horror – #horrorcomics – #comicbooks – #TheSkinYoureIn – @ssbcpunk – #AshleyRobinFranklin –

By: Ashley Robin Franklin

For better or worse, the bodies we inhabit are our homes. But despite the old adage, home isn’t always the safest place to be…

Within these pages, Ashley Robin Franklin leads you through the corridors of the uncanny in eight horror comics that are just begging to get under your skin. Whether set in the arid desert or the rain-soaked forest, these stories reveal the fallibilities of flesh that lurk just beneath the surface. A strange desert flower offers an intoxicating balm to grief, a group of friends invoke an old tale by the campfire, and outside a remote farmhouse, something miraculous and terrible falls from the night sky. Bodies are found, lost, celebrated, borrowed, haunted ― and irrevocably changed.

The Skin You’re In is the definitive collection of Ashley Robin Franklin’s horror comics, showcasing her skillful exploration of queer horror and the ways in which our bodies, relationships, and environments affect us straight to the bone. The book collects all her previously published work, such as One Million Tiny Fires and Fruiting Bodies, as well as five never-before-seen comics, including the 100-page graphic novella Contest Winner. It’s all packaged in a deluxe fabric-bound hardcover with foil accents. Just be warned: you might want to read this collection with the lights on.

Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein Available November 12

#horror – #horrorcomics – #comicbooks – #MaryShelleysFrankenstein – @LegendaryComics – #MaryShelley –

By: Mary Shelley

Mary Shelley’s iconic masterpiece is brought to life with the definitive on-screen Frankenstein, Boris Karloff, in this stunning new graphic novel!

Decades before the works of Edgar Allan Poe, Jules Verne, and H.G. Wells, 18-year-old Mary Shelley wrote what many regard as the first work of science fiction when she penned FRANKENSTEIN: or, the MODERN PROMETHEUS, which was published in 1818.

Over one hundred years later, in 1931, a hard-working but relatively unknown actor named Boris Karloff was cast to play Frankenstein’s monster in James Whale’s now classic movie adaptation. The film made Karloff a star and solidified Frankenstein’s monster as an icon of the silver screen.

In 2024, Legendary Comics is proud to bring Shelley and Karloff together for the first time in a faithful adaptation of the novel starring the iconic actor in the lead role of the fully reimagined monster. In partnership with Sara Karloff of Karloff Enterprises, and featuring the artistic talents of Kerry Gammill and El Garing, the team behind the award-winning BRAM STOKER’S DRACULA STARRING BELA LUGOSI, this new graphic novel is certain to delight and terrify old and new fans alike.
