Today, Skybound and Image Comics announced the new limited series, Corpse Knight by acclaimed writer/co-creator Michael Chaves (The Conjuring franchise), artist/co-creator Matthew Roberts (Universal Monsters: Creature from The Black Lagoon Lives!), and Rico Renzi (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse). Corpse Knight is a haunting new horror series where family is family, whether they’re alive or undead. The debut issue of this intense horror fantasy series arrives in comic book shops on April 22, 2026. "Corpse Knight was born out of my love of dark fantasy, but it quickly became something more. It’s a story of parenthood and mortality, told through heroes, monsters, and all the shades in between,” said Michael Chaves. “I’ve been a fan of Matthew Roberts since Manifest Destiny, and I truly believe this is some of his finest work. His art is beautiful, tactile, and, when it needs to be, amazingly gruesome. Alongside Rico Renzi’s awesome color work, it’s everything you want from this kind of book.”
