Get a first look at Adam Smith and Bob Quinn’s Hide Nor Hair, coming January 2027 from Vertigo

Posted on by Leave a comment

This January, writer Adam Smith and artist Bob Quinn pull back the curtain on 1950s Hollywood in Hide Nor Hair, a new six-issue DC Vertigo limited series about movie magic, stolen credit, a monstrous found family, and the brutal lengths one overlooked artist will go to protect the creatures she brought to life.

Working on Galaxy Pictures’ creature features from inside the famed Leonard family’s special effects house, Mallory Headley creates the masks behind monsters like the Thing from the Muck, Baba Yaga the witch, and Koschei the vampire. The monsters become stars. The Leonards get the credit. Mallory remains largely invisible.

Hollywood knows Mallory Headley’s monsters. It just doesn’t know Mallory Headley.

And Mallory knows something Hollywood doesn’t: the masks are alive.

When the masks are violently taken from her, Mallory sets out to bring them home, beginning a fantastical and brutal path of vengeance through the shadows of 1950s Hollywood.

Hide Nor Hair blends old-Hollywood glamour and creature-feature fantasy with noir, mystery, and visceral horror as Mallory searches for her stolen family and confronts a world that has spent years overlooking both her talent and her creations.

Hide Nor Hair #1, written by Adam Smith with art and a main cover by Bob Quinn and lettering by Lucas Gattoni, arrives at participating comic book shops and digital retailers on January 6, 2027. Issue #1 also features variant covers by Reiko Murakami, Jasmine Darnell, and Niko Henrichon. The 40-page debut issue is $3.99 US, with card stock variants available for $4.99 US.

Get an early look at the first two issues below!
