Wyatt Kennedy and Luigi Formisano’s Nights returns with a New Arc this July

Posted on by Leave a comment

Writer Wyatt Kennedy and rising star artist Luigi Formisano’s ongoing vampire series Nights will awaken to an all-new story arc this July from Image Comics. Nights #19 kicks off a blood-curdling new chapter in the story and picks up where the jaw-dropping events of #12 left off.

In Nights #19, Vince, now a vampire, has finally awoken from a three month long coma and Gray is nowhere to be seen. Chimera’s forces are closing in on the duo, determined to capture the monster responsible for the town’s destruction but first they’ll have to contend with the arrival of the legendary (and bloodthirsty) vampire conquistador, Eda! 

Nights #19 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, July 1.

The Clock Strikes the Witching Hour in Season Two of Nights

Posted on by

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. 

Featuring covers illustrated by Formisano, The Season One finale issue, Nights #12 (Lunar Code 0824IM402), will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, January 15, 2025. The Season Two premiere issue, Nights #13 (Lunar Code 1224IM238) will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, February 26, 2025.

Graphic Policy’s Top Comic Picks this Week!

Posted on by
American Psycho #1

Wednesdays (and Tuesdays) are new comic book day! Each week hundreds of comics are released, and that can be pretty daunting to go over and choose what to buy. That’s where we come in

Each week our contributors choose what they can’t wait to read this week or just sounds interesting. In other words, this is what we’re looking forward to and think you should be taking a look at!

Find out what folks think below, and what comics you should be looking out for this week.

A Haunted Girl #1 (Image Comics) – Cleo, an adopted 16-year-old Japanese-American whose depression drove her to near-suicide, is trying unsuccessfully to reintegrate back into her old life. But her struggles are just beginning as she encounters an increasingly terrifying succession of ghosts.

American Psycho #1 (Massive Publishing/Sumerian) – Witness the greatest hits of Patrick’s murderous rampage while exploring new revelations in the world of American Psycho. On that, we’re dubious, but it’s also the journey of an all-new psychopath as social media obsessed millennial. That, we’re more intrigued by.

Batman and Robin #2 (DC Comics) – The first issue did a great job of balancing superheroics and family drama and we’re expecting more!

Batman: City of Madness #1 (DC Comics) – Writer/artist Christian Ward takes on Batman, nuff said.

Capwolf and the Howling Commandos #1 (Marvel) – It’s such a silly concept but perfect for the season.

Destiny Gate #1 (Image Comics/Top Cow Production) – Life, for the most part, is the product of the decisions you make. For some, a “wrong” decision or two (or more) leads to a crossroads on the other side of the Destiny Gate.

Earthdivers #11 (IDW Publishing) – Mission isn’t accomplished so it’s on to 1776 and an attempt to cave out a better future in the Declaration of Independence.

Mech Cadets #3 (BOOM! Studios) – The series has been a fantastic reintroduction to the world that mixes up military/giant robot/alien genres with youthful energy.

Midlife Hero at Fifty #1 (Image Comics) – After 25 years in the LAFD, Ruben’s firmly in the middle of an unremarkable life…until his new wife gets pregnant and a random act of courage reveals that Ruben is FIREPROOF!

Nights #1 (Image Comics) – Supernatural creatures exist among the common folk, and America is comprised of just 31 states. Ok, that’s enough to get us to check this out.

Operation Sunshine #1 (Dark Horse) – A group of young, alienated vampires known as “bugs” plot to steal a magical object from ancient monstrous vampires to turn themselves back to human.

Scarlett Couture: The Munich File #3 (Titan Comics) – Sexy pop spy action!

Superior Spider-Man Returns #1 (Marvel) – We’re fans of the original run with the character and intrigued to see how this return happens.

Wesley Dodds: The Sandman #1 (DC Comics) – The classic Sandman is back and must get his journal with all of the other failed and more deadly gas formulas back.

Nights delivers a new vision of urban fantasy adventure

Posted on by

Writer Wyatt Kennedy teams with artist Luigi Formisano for an all new, ongoing series in the forthcoming Nights. This new vision of urban fantasy adventure launches in October from Image Comics.

It’s 2003, 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, his video game-making roommate, and befriends “the greatest vampire who’s ever lived.” And that’s just the first 20 pages. Welcome to Florida, youth is wasted on the young…

Perhaps best described as Fright Night meets Scott Pilgrim, this vampy new series is a must-read and features anime influences, gamer culture, and found family.

Nights #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, October 11.
