The clock strikes the witching hour in Season Two of the critically acclaimed supernatural series Nights, with a new upcoming arc of the ongoing comic book series that travels back in time to 1970s Las Vegas to explore the criminal origins of fan-favorite vampire girl Gray and her charismatic witch ex, Erik. Beloved co-creators Wyatt Kennedy and Luigi Formisano and series editor Alana Fox are returning to the fantasy-horror series to pack a bloodier punch and plunge deeper into the darkness in this time-traveling storyline that is both a great jumping on point for new readers and a treat for longtime fans. Launching in February 2025, Season Two will also present a new otherworldly antagonist, Moriel, and reveal the aftermath of the shocking events in the upcoming Season One finale issue, Nights #12, hitting shelves this January. Fans of anime like Studio Ghibli films will love this animation-influenced urban gothic series with equal measure of blood, heart, and humor.
In Nights, supernatural creatures casually exist amongst humans, and America is made up of 31 states. Vince Okonma has lost his parents, moved in with his secret mercenary cousin and his video game-making roommate, and befriended “the greatest vampire who’s ever lived.” And that’s just the beginning. The road to the Season One finale has been full of shocking twists and turns, but vampire Gray’s destiny is at last revealed in Nights #12. An old enemy reemerges to deliver unbelievable carnage, and no one is safe. This is the end of everything and the start of something new in an extra-packed issue with massive consequences. Everything comes to a head in a status-quo shifting season finale.
Then, the Season Two launch issue, Nights #13 will start a brand-new storytelling chapter. Following the events of Season One’s violent finale, we travel back to the 1970s in this new series arc, where rookie CHIMERA agent Tsukumari investigates the rise of dangerous magical oddities and artifacts from the blistering cold of Estonia to the boiling decadence of Las Vegas. This journey will lead him on a collision course with a younger Gray, with an effect that will have ripple effects across decades. A dark path lies ahead in Season Two.
