October is Creature Feature Time with Count Crowley: Reluctant Midnight Monster Hunter

Posted on by

Dark Horse Comics has the perfect comic for the Halloween season! Count Crowley: Reluctant Midnight Monster Hunter is the debut comic from award-winning actor David Dastmalchian and artist Lukas Ketner. 

In Count Crowley: Reluctant Midnight Monster Hunter, Jerri Bartman, once a rising TV journalist, has returned to her small Midwest hometown TV station. Demoted to hosting the nightly Creature Feature, Jerri’s professional humiliation is eclipsed by the discovery that her new job comes with a secret, supernatural duty. Her missing predecessor, Count Crowley, was one of the last “Appointed” hunters of monsters. Yes. Monsters. They’re real, and they’re hell-bent on controlling the news and information consumed by humans. Everything we’ve ever been taught about monsters is a lie, and Jerri’s only possible advisor is a senile male chauvinist. It’s 1983, and the outlook for humanity is getting . . . gnarly. Our only hope is an alcoholic, acerbic horror host from Missouri. 

Prepare to fight your demons (literally) on October 23, 2019.
