Following the breakout success of Where Wolf, writer Robert Saucedo (Birth. Movies. Death.), artist and colorist Debora Lancianese (Quicksand, The Lost Gardens, Fear Me, Love Me), and Harvey Award-winning letterer Jack Morelli (Afterlife with Archie, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) reunite for CURSE OF THE WHERE WOLF, an all-new horror-comedy graphic novel that pushes Larry Chaney's misadventures into even stranger, bloodier, and surprisingly more heartfelt territory.
Originally debuting as a black-and-white webcomic through Fangoria before being collected by Encyclopocalypse Publications in 2023, Where Wolf quickly found an audience through its sharp blend of horror, comedy, and Texas-sized absurdity, while also attracting attention beyond comics through an active film and television option with producers Charles Horak and James Fino of Starburns Industries, executive producers of Rick and Morty, Anomalisa, HarmonQuest, and The Freak Brothers.
Featuring iconic characters including Saitama, Genos, Terrible Tornado, Mumen Rider, and Garou, this collaboration delivers a chaotic blend of One-Punch Man’s overpowered action and Blood Strike’s high-intensity combat. A must-play experience for fans of both worlds.
