C2E2 2011 Day 2: Drew Gaska Talks ‘Critical Millennium’ From Archaia!
It is always a nice change of pace when you get to discover new stories as well as old favorites. Take for instance Andrew Gaska’s ‘CRITICAL MILLENNIUM’. At the time that we were approached for the interview with the Archaia produced series, neither myself nor collegue Johnny_Trouble had heard of the Sci-Fi series before, much less read it. However, after reading all three books the night before, we both went into The Con this morning genuinely excited to sit down and chat with Drew, and we were not disappointed. Inside you can check out the full video interview with the scribe. Read on for the skinny!
We would love to thank Drew Gaska for doing this interview and giving us such an inciteful look into the world of @CRITICAL MILLENNIUM’. For those who have yet to do so, you can easily pick up the first three issues of he 4 part arc on Archaia’s official website and you can follow him on Twitter here. We can assure those of you with a penchant for the Sci-Fi twist on horror that it is worth the read. Also, be sure to keep yourselves locked here at Graphic Content as we continue to bring you more on site coverage from The Con via the official page and our Twitter accounts.

‘Curse of the Where Wolf’ Bites Into August Release With Trio of Werewolf Theatrical Screenings [Exclusive Preview]
Larry Chaney‘s hairy misadventures are continuing in the sequel graphic novel Curse of the Where Wolf from creative team Rob Saucedo, Debora Lancianese, and Jack Morelli, and its author is celebrating with a trio of horror’s greatest werewolf films.
The Curse of the Where Wolf hits shelves on August 7 from Encyclopocalypse Publications.
That coincides with the launch of a theatrical screening event in Houston, Texas, featuring a trio of seminal werewolf flicks turning 45 this year: The Howling on August 7, Wolfen on August 14, and An American Werewolf in London on August 21.
Each screening features a “werewolf in film” presentation as well as a book signing from Where Wolf author and River Oaks Theatre artistic director Rob Saucedo.
In the new graphic novel, “Being a werewolf sucks. Reporter Larry Chaney wanted to be a hero. Instead, he became a werewolf. Now, caught between incredible new powers and a desire to eat everything (and everyone) in sight, Larry must find a cure for his curse. Or die trying.”
“With Where Wolf, I wanted to tell a whodunit set in a furry convention, so the story was pretty contained within a very specific setting and genre. With Curse of the Where Wolf, I wanted to celebrate everything I love about the possibility of comic books. Curse of the Where Wolf is a funny book, in every sense of the phrase, but it’s also an earnest look at a person’s struggle to become a better version of themselves, especially when the alternative is to become a literal monster,” Saucedo says of Curse.
The original graphic novel was previously serialized as the first webcomic hosted on Fangoria before being collected by Encyclopocalypse Publications in 2023 and has already been optioned for film, podcast, and television development ahead of launch by producers James Fino (“The Freak Brothers” for Tubi, “Rick and Morty” for Adult Swim) and Charles Horak (First Date for Magnolia Pictures).
Expect Larry to find himself in even weirder situations in the 362-page full color sequel; Saucedo has provided Bloody Disgusting with exclusive art pages from the upcoming graphic novel that showcase lupine humor.
