Acclaimed Slayers: A Buffyverse Story audio drama co-writers and co-directors Amber Benson and Christopher Golden are returning to the realm of horror for original Irish folk comic book series The Heir, coming from Mad Cave Studios. The upcoming five-issue limited series will be illustrated by Irish artist Gavin Fullerton and feature colors by Juancho!, and letters by Becca Carey. Fans of Hokum, Ready or Not, The Haunting of Hill House, and Irish folklore will love this dark supernatural tale following a young woman’s Gothic-tinged descent into madness in a mysterious Irish estate full of family secrets, where she’ll have to fight against ominous forces for the one she loves.

In The Heir, Dani’s first trip to Ireland with her fiancé, Conor, was supposed to revolve around them announcing their engagement to his family. Instead, it’s the funeral of his grandfather, immersing Dani in a labyrinth of family secrets, child abduction, dark history, and ancient Irish folklore. Spiraling into murder, curses, and monstrosity, The Heir thrusts Dani into a race against time to save the one she loves the most, no matter the cost.

The first issue will feature variant covers by an all-star lineup of artists including Jamie McKelvie, Mike Mignola, Rebekah Isaacs with colors by Marissa Louise, and Chuma Hill, to be revealed soon.
