Skybound reveals the Creepshow #3 creative team, stories and covers!

Posted on by

Skybound has announced the all-star creative teams and stories behind Creepshow #3, the upcoming issue of the hugely anticipated five-issue comic book anthology based on Greg Nicotero’s hit Shudder TV series produced and licensed by Cartel Entertainment. Creepshow #3 will arrive in comic book shops on November 23, 2022.   

In the spirit of all iterations of Creepshow in pop culture, each issue of the Creepshow comic anthology series comes packed with two spine-chilling stories.  

First, Francesco Francavilla and L Marlow Francavilla welcome you to a barbershop where the locals share tales of their greatest kills, and the hunters can just as easily become prey. 

Then, Ariela Kristantina and Jorge Corona journey to a temple hidden within an island paradise, where many visit, but not everyone leaves.  

In addition to the main cover by Chris Burnham, Creepshow #3 comes with an impressive lineup of variant covers, including a cover by Francesco Francavilla and a 1:10 incentive cover by Vance Kelly.  

Creepshow #3 (of 5) will be available at comic book shops and digital platforms including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, comiXology, and Google Play on Wednesday, November 23, 2022.  

The full list of covers is below: 

  • CREEPSHOW #3 CVR A by Chris Burnham (SEP220249) 
  • CREEPSHOW #3 CVR B by Francesco Francavilla (SEP220250) 
  • CREEPSHOW #3 CVR C by Vance Kelly (1:10 Incentive) (SEP220251)

Critically acclaimed journalist & opinion writer Jude Ellison S. Doyle (Dead Blonds and Bad Mothers), breakout artist A.L. Kaplan, and colorist Fabiana Mascolo (Firefly: Brand New ‘Verse) weave a provocative horror story of sisterly bonds, deep trauma, and the dormant monsters buried within us, perfect for readers of Redlands and Something is Killing the Children!

Marion Angela Weber hopes to gain some perspective and empowerment at a feminist retreat with her sister Wendy on the remote island of Angitia – some perspective that isn’t at the bottom of a bottle for once.

But after an assault on her first night on the island, everything goes horribly wrong. The violent encounter awakens something monstrous in Marion, triggering warped mutations in her body, and bringing forth a hunger she can’t bring herself to name…

Vault Announces A Dark Interlude with New Series Artist Piotr Kowalski

Posted on by

Vault has announce the long-awaited return of A Dark Interlude with new series artist, Piotr Kowalski. Beginning with Issue #3, which hits shelves in January 2022, A Dark Interlude will return to its monthly release schedule.

A Dark Interlude, the not-quite-a-sequel to Fearscape, is written by Ryan O’Sullivan, drawn by Piotr Kowalski, colored by Vladimir Popov, lettered by Andworld Design, and designed by Tim Daniel. 

A Dark Interlude #3 hits store shelves on January 26, 2022, with a stunning A cover by Ariela Kristantina and a gorgeous B cover variant by Rebekah Isaacs.

What sort of gibbering reprobate requires solicit information for the third chapter of a story? Why must I continue to write these? And don’t you dare respond citing “contractual obligations”. If we’re going to go down that route, then may I remind you that if it wasn’t for me, nobody would have heard of… [Message truncated once again, with apologies, at the request of Vault Comics].
