Comic Book Preview – Something is Killing the Children #1

September 1, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

GLAAD Award-winning writer James Tynion IV (Batman: Detective Comics) and artist Werther Dell’Edera (Briggs Land) team up this week for the all-new limited series Something is Killing the Children, and you can check out a preview of the first issue here courtesy of Boom! Studios…

When the children of Archer’s Peak begin to go missing, everything seems hopeless. Most children never return, but the ones that do have terrible stories—impossible stories of terrifying creatures that live in the shadows.

Their only hope of finding and eliminating the threat is the arrival of a mysterious stranger, one who believes the children and claims to see what they can see.

Her name is Erica Slaughter. She kills monsters. That is all she does, and she bears the cost because it MUST be done.

Something is Killing the Children #1 is out on September 4th, priced $3.99.
