The Triptych of Terror comes to The Last Comic Book on the Left

Posted on by

The fevered minds behind The Last Podcast on the Left, Marcus Parks, Henry Zebrowski, and Ben Kissel, have once more joined unholy forces with Z2 Comics for a third tome in the The Last Comic Book on the Left series. Overflowing with stories equally heretic and hilarious, this new anthology has ensnared a new batch of writers and artists to conjure more macabre and profane sequential art inspired by the podcast, featuring doomed descents into Norwegian Black Metal, the Andreasson Affair, the Hollow Moon, and the Edgewood Arsenal (among others). 

What other degenerates have been recruited into this brochure of the wicked? 

  • Eliot Rahal (Amelia Aierwood: Basic Witch, Cheech & Chong’s Chronicles)
  • Bob Fingerman (Minimum Wage, Beg the Question)
  • Brennan Wagner (Blondie: Against the Odds)
  • Jenna Cha (Black Stars Above)
  • Grim Wilkins (Mirenda, Prophet)
  • Maria Lovett (Faithless, Porcelain)
  • Josh Simmons (Black River, Flayed Corpse)
  • Bayard Morse (The Last Comic Book on the Left)
  • Eryk Donovan (Heavy, Memetic) 
  • Jade Young 
  • Jensine Eckwall

In addition, Marcus Parks and Henry Zebrowski will step out from the bullpen to write their own stories in this new volume. Legendary creator Matt Wagner (Mage, Grendel) provides the cover art for the deluxe edition with repeat offender Bob Fingerman returning to provide cover art on the standard edition; Rob Schwager illustrated the hardback. 

Like the first two volumes of The Last Comic Book on the Left, a series of prints will come bundled with deluxe editions of the book. Artists and subjects include:

  • Maria Lovett, Vampires
  • Rob Schwager, The Flatwoods Monster 
  • Jade Young, Curse of the Kelpie

Alongside the clandestine organization known as Z2 Comics, the minds behind Last Podcast on the Left have recruited a new batch of victims creators devoted to ushering terror and hilarity onto panel and page for The Last Comic Book on the Left Volume 2. These conjurors of the profane will unleash new tales featuring Bigfoot, Philip K. Dick android, Gef the Talking Mongoose, the return of the Well Actually Killer, Alcatraz island, the Manson Family, and more sad, buttery goodness from Detective Popcorn.

  • Ian McGinty (Adventure Time, Invader Zim)
  • Tom Neely (Henry & Glen Forever)
  • Lonnie Nadler (Black Stars Above, X-Men)
  • Brandon Montclare (Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur)
  • Butch Mapa (Avengers)
  • Masa Minoura (Genesis One: A Poppy Graphic Novel) 
  • Jensine Eckwall (Almost A Full Moon)
  • Tyler Boss (4 Kids Walk Into a Bank, What’s the Furthest Place From Here?)
  • Eliot Rahal (Machine Gun Kelly’s Hotel Diablo, the upcoming Cheech and Chong’s Chronicles: The Graphic Novel)
  • Logan Faerber
  • Bayard Morse

Like the first volume of The Last Comic Book on the Left, a series of prints will come bundled with deluxe editions of the book. Artists and subjects include: 

  • Koren Shadmi, Alien…um…accessories
  • Ashley Ross, Hail Yourself 
  • Butch Mapa, The Birdman of Alcatraz

The trio has partnered with Z2 Comics to release a new series of graphic novels, beginning with The Last Comic Book on the Left Vol. 1, debuting Spring 2022. 

The project will pay homage to the storied history of horror comics with a curated, interlocking anthology in the vein of Creepy, Eerie, Tales From the Crypt, and The Vault of Horror. Participating creators include the most innovative voices in the genre, including:
