While we wait to see if and when HATCHET creator Adam Green is going to make a HATCHET 5, the franchise's slasher Victor Crowley lives on in the pages of comic books from American Mythology Productions. Crowley rampaged through a four issue mini-series, is currently making his way through a second mini-series, and Green's company Ariescope has announced that there will be a special HATCHET comic released this October.
Titled VICTOR CROWLEY'S HATCHET HALLOWEEN TALES, this one is an anthology that features three stories from three different writers.
Spend Halloween with three creepy tales from Honey Island Swamp!
In "Following" writer Jason Pell (Beware The Witch's Shadow) shows us that heartbreak can lead to a fatal outcome…
Novelist SA Check (Volcanosaurus) delivers the doomed destiny of a circus troupe attempting to add Victor Crowley to their freakshow in "In The Company Of Freaks"…
and in "Gourd To Death" horror author James Kuhoric (Freddy vs Jason vs Ash) delivers a Halloween monster mash of bloody revenge.
As a bonus Halloween treat you'll also enjoy several holiday themed activities in the vein of HATCHET!
Those sound like fun to me. I'm especially interested in reading the freakshow one.
Ariescope is accepting pre-orders for VICTOR CROWLEY'S HATCHET HALLOWEEN TALES, and each comic purchased through the company's store will be signed by Green. If you'd like to pick up a copy, HERE'S THE LINK.
VICTOR CROWLEY'S HATCHET HALLOWEEN TALES will be out on October 9th.
The comic has five different covers to choose from, and all five of them can be seen below.
