The spooky season is upon us, and Marvel is planning to celebrate it with their next entry, CRYPT OF SHADOWS #1, a one-shot told in the spirit of Halloween. With a story written by Steve Orlando, Benjamin Percy, Jason Lew, and Chris Condon, and artwork created by Claire Law, Raffaele Ienco, Carlos Magno, and Djibril Morissette, the comic will be a nifty read for anyone interested in getting into the Marvel and Halloween spirit.
This year’s CRYPT OF SHADOWS #1 features an Agatha Harkness story from current beloved Scarlet Witch author Steve Orlando, with illustrations by Claire Law.
There’s also an ocean tale in which the swamp monster Man-Thing battles Namor, and a tale by Jason Lew and Carlos Magno in which Kraven the Hunter tracks down a Jack Russell named Werewolf By Night.
Most importantly, this issue marks the debut of Joshua Jovan from the TV series “Werewolf by Night.” If you don’t remember, Jovan was an axe-wielding monster hunter who in this story accidentally falls through the final door and encounters a new “monster”: the Scarlet Witch.
His story is told by writer Chris Condon and artist Djibril Morissette.
