Hellboy‘s Mike Mignola looks to use the momentum of the coming film reboot of big red to give us even more comic scenarios that make a brush with the supernaturally nefarious forces with a new graphic novel. The comic is entitled Our Encounters with Evil.
Johnson-Cadwell, who writes and draws the graphic novel, said in a statement:
We join this trio as Professor Meinhardt recounts three of their ‘Encounters With Evil. These stories take us through the dark-hearted Hornetwood, across the diabolic Blackwater Falls, and into the hands of a deadly hunter.
Mignola promises the graphic novel will bring fans a “world of vampires and related monstrosities like nothing you’re even seen before”:
Warwick brought an insane amount to energy and invention to Mr. Higgins Comes Home— more ideas than could ever fit into that one book — so I was thrilled when he told me he wanted to continue the adventures of Meinhardt and Knox.
Check out the cover, drawn by Mignola and featuring the contributions of colorist Dave Stewart and letterer Clem Robins:
Our Encounters With Evil: Adventures of Professor J.T. Meinhardt and His Assistant Mr. Knox is slated for release starting October 9, 2019.
