REVIEWS

STEPHEN


STUFF OF NIGHTMARES: RED MURDER


Writer: R.L. Stine


Artist: Adam Gorham


Publisher: BOOM! Studios


Cover Price: $7.99


Release Date: September 27, 2023

Comic creator Alex Oxaca has been out of the spotlight for decades, and he'll wish he'd remained in obscurity soon enough...

RED MURDER was the smash hit title of the early 2000s, and will come back from the past in more ways than one during the 20th anniversary celebration of the title!

A real ax murderer, eerily parallel to the hatchet-wielding killer in the comic, starts chopping down equally real victims.

Prolific author of legendary terror R.L. Stine is joined by artist Adam Gorham (Dune: Blood of the Sardaukar, The Blue Flame) for a nightmarish self-contained chapter of the bestselling Stuff of Nightmares that readers new and old would kill for!
