A Monstrous New Detective is Born in Prometheus Graft: The Slayings at Death’s End #1 – Beginning in December!

Posted on by Leave a comment

Oni Press has announced Prometheus Graft: The Slayings at Death’s End #1 – a taut and twisting murder mystery teaming rising star George Northy and Eisner Award–nominated artist Caitlin Yarsky for a first-of-its-kind comics whodunnit with infinite surprises and even more stitches! This December, you’re invited to a remote Romanian castle as the infamous, undead spawn of Dr. Frankenstein – now reborn as the world’s most brilliant criminal investigator – is tasked with solving a monstrous murder that could lead to the end of humanity itself… 

Decades after his creation, the creature once known as Frankenstein’s Monster has reinvented himself as Europe’s most formidable mind. After years underground, his scars have faded and his genius-level intellect has tamed his hulking nature… revealing an extraordinary talent for solving the world’s most inexplicable mysteries. Today, he is Prometheus Graft: gentleman detective, expert investigator… and something still not quite entirely human. 

Now, on the cusp of a new century set to be ruled by science over superstition, Graft believes he his finally conquered his monstrous past . . . until he is summoned to the remote Romanian castle of Death’s End, where an immortal lord has assembled Europe’s most feared supernatural beings to broker a long-lasting peace. But their fragile treaty will soon be shattered when the corpse of one of the prominent guests is found murdered in the castle’s hedge maze… turning witch against werewolf and vampire against ghoul as suspicion and bloodshed spiral. 

With only his instincts and a bloodstained trail of clues to guide him, can Prometheus Graft solve the slayings at Death’s End before a new day breaks… and all hell follows with it? 

From the ashes of Frankenstein’s destruction, a new kind of detective will be born this December, only in Prometheus Graft: The Slayings at Death’s End #1 – featuring covers by series co-creator Caitlin Yarsky, alongside Eisner Award winner Eric Powell, Eisner Award winner Gabriel Rodriguez, and Patricia Martín! Prometheus Graft: The Slayings at Death’s End #1 arrives December 9th.

WHEN THEY SAY THE HOLIDAYS ARE HELL, THEY MEAN IT . . . LITERALLY! Creators George Northy (EC’s Shiver SuspenStories) and Rachele Aragno (Leonide the Vampyr) unleash their final gift: The joyously explosive, 40-page finale to the careering Christmas adventure that’s soon to become a holiday staple! For hundreds of years, the Yule Witch Perchta has been imprisoned in a sacred relic, but now, three teenagers have accidentally released her into an idyllic Pennsylvania town on the cusp of Christmas—and she is not alone! Accompanied by a menagerie of holiday horrors like the Yule Cat and Meri Lywd, Perchta has ravaged her way through town with two simple goals: power and REVENGE! As Perchta’s Yuletide beasts wreak havoc on the good citizens, a handful of the town’s smartest and most misunderstood youth, armed with the secrets of the past by one of the warrior elves of old, are the town’s only hope for saving Christmas—and the WORLD!

WILL THIS HOLIDAY BE OUR LAST?! Rising stars George Northy (EC’s Shiver SuspenStories) and Rachele Aragno (Leonide the Vampire) unleash the next epic chapter of this soon-to-be-classic Christmastime adventure in a double-sized, 40-page package! In the festive town of Christmas, PA, life is like a holiday feast all year round: decorations, lights, shopping, and all the trimmings! Until the facade is shattered by the accidental awakening of the sinister Christmas Witch—Perchta—who has an axe to grind against the world that imprisoned and forgot her! And she’s not alone! With the help of the vicious Yule Cat and the mischievous Yule Lads, the dark spirits of the winter holiday are set to wreak havoc on this otherwise idyllic town and beyond, and the only ones who can stop them are the group of misfit teens that accidentally released her in the first place—joined by the elven warrior Erligur, who’s battled these baddies before. This unlikely alliance of youthful heroes must stop Perchta and her brood from casting their darkness across the land!

Yuletide #1 kicks of a fun twist on Christmas cheer and celebration

Posted on by

Have you ever wondered why our brightly colored and joyously cheerful Christmas festivities are held at the peak of winter’s frigid darkness? That is no mere coincidence—and now the truth about the monsters the yuletide holds at bay will finally be revealed in a gleaming gift of epic holiday adventure from creators George Northy (EC’s Shiver SuspenStories) and Rachele Aragno (Leonide the Vampyr)! Welcome to the small town of Christmas, Pennsylvania—the merriest place on Earth . . . or so they’d like everyone to think. When December rolls around, these folks pull out all the stops for America’s biggest, brightest holiday display . . . but not everyone in Christmas, PA, is so enthusiastic. Teens Jake, Abe, and Wyn are more interested in the dark side of the holiday that their parents like to pretend doesn’t exist . . . The ancient legends of mythic monsters and pagan pandemonium that are deeply tied to the festival’s long-forgotten origins. So when their hobby leads them to an abandoned wing of the local Christmas museum to investigate, they’ll discover an ancient relic that, when activated, will bring a furious procession of yuletide horrors long since banished from our plane—and with it, a darkness that has been waiting centuries for its chance to overtake the world! In the tradition The Goonies, Hocus Pocus, and Goosebumps, the countdown to Christmas starts now as Yuletide presents the first three extra-sized, 40-page issues unleashing a monstrous new kind of holiday tale for readers young and old!
