Victor Crowley Returns in One-Shot Comic ‘Hatchet: Unstoppable Horror’ This Summer
Victor Crowley is back for more murder and mayhem in Adam Green’s Hatchet: Unstoppable Horror, a brand new one-shot comic book on the way from American Mythology Productions.
The one-shot features “three complete tales of gut-ripping terror”!
American Mythology teases, “A creature of pure rage and anger, Victor Crowley savagely defends his remote, swamp home, teaching the true meaning of despair to interlopers of his domain before tearing them horribly asunder. But not only is Victor Crowley a hideous, murderous monster, he just won’t die as we’ll see in these three, unique stories that highlight the unstoppable, supernatural nature of Victor Crowley! These tales are not for the faint of heart and reveal the true darkness within the monster haunting Honey Island Swamp!”
The 32-page comic releases July 7, up for pre-order through Ariescope today.
IDW Dark and Paramount recently joined forces to launch limited comic book tales set in the worlds of Smile and A Quiet Place, and we’ve learned today that they’ll continue hanging around in those franchise universes with two brand new limited series tales.
Entertainment Weekly has exclusively revealed this afternoon that IDW Dark’s Any Given Smile debuts in September, while A Quiet Place: Rising Tides arrives in November.
First up, from writer Stephanie Williams and artist Pablo Collar, Any Given Smile puts a football-themed twist on Parker Finn’s successful Smile movie franchise.
The five-part limited series is “set in January 1995, during the American Arena League football championship game in St. Augustine, Florida. The rising superstar of the Sharks, backup quarterback Dupree, is feeling the pressure from his teammates, the fans, and also the city’s gambling underworld, to whom he owes a considerable debt. Meanwhile, a sports journalist investigates a string of suicides that may be connected to the big game. At the very least, they are connected to a sinister entity that preys on the minds of its victims.”
From writer Declan Shalvey and artist Luke Sparrow, A Quiet Place: Rising Tides will also be a five-issue limited story. The comic book tale “brings the creatures to the Florida Keys, where a father-daughter duo attempt to survive on water in a houseboat.”
EW further details, “This tense family reunion coincides with the arrival of the vicious creatures that hunt through sound. Grace and her dad find safety on the open ocean, but she’ll have to make landfall sooner or later; the father’s oxygen tank and their supplies are running low, while a hurricane swiftly approaches.”
