First Look at ‘Creepshow Vol. 5 #1’ From Tyler Boss & Lorenzo De Felici
Prepare for more creepification. Skybound has announced a fifth volume of Creepshow, the hugely popular comic book anthology based on Greg Nicotero’s Shudder TV series — and now we have our first look!
Creepshow is one of the most popular and beloved horror anthologies of all-time. It all began back in the ’80s with the original movie, directed by genre legend George A. Romero (of zombie movie fame) and written by Stephen King. The movie spawned a sequel, and of course, Greg Nicotero’s cult TV series on Shudder. The series would make its natural progression into the comics medium through Image Comics/Skybound in 2019, garnering a dedicated audience of its own.
This year, Creep-Verse is expanded into the superhero field in the form of Super Creepshow, which has been a major success (in fact, we’ve got an ongoing series where we interview the creators behind each issue!). Now the Eisner Award-nominated horror anthology is returning in its mainline form in September. The new Volume will consist of 5 issues, and will feature stories by the comics talent of Tyler Boss (Universal Monsters: Phantom of the Opera), Francesca Ciregia (Spider-Man), and Lorenzo De Felici (Void Rivals, Red Roots).
In Creepshow Vol.5 #1, Tyler Boss & Francesca Ciregia give you a show you’ll never forget when tensions (and body parts) are stretched too thin between clown colleagues. *honk honk* Then, Lorenzo De Felici will pique your curiosity when a mysterious object from space begins to wipe out humanity. Can the last surviving astronaut trace its origins?
“This next volume of CREEPSHOW is bringing a new batch of truly horrific, strange, and darkly oddball stories that speak to the existential dreads of this moment,” teased Diegs Lopez, Senior Editor at Skybound. “Featuring A-list and fresh rising star talent, the creative teams for this volume have pushed the boundaries of the horror genre to some very exciting places.”
