Marvel introducing a new Werewolf By Night this April courtesy of Taboo of The Black Eyed Peas

January 20, 2020 by Gary Collinson

Marvel has announced that a new Werewolf By Night is coming to the Marvel Universe this April courtesy of co-writers Benjamin Jackendoff and Taboo of The Black Eyed Peas, who will be penning a new volume of the classic horror title centred around a young man named  Jake who will be dealing with the effects of a family curse while trying to protect his people.

“We’re going through a Native lens because of my Native American heritage,” Taboo told Comicbook.com. “I always liked storytelling from a native perspective. Although I was born in the city of Los Angeles, recently I’ve been really connected to the Indian country or to native communities to be able to be a service and help native youth, inspire them, especially when it comes to health and wellness, and arts and music. So we built our partnership knowing that when we create, we create through a native lens…”

I think Werewolf by Night is such an interesting character, a cool character. His mythology is really dope, and it was such an exciting opportunity to be able to revamp a new mythology and tie it into Native American storytelling,” Jackendoff added. “That’s really what got us excited because they were like, ‘All right, cool. We can take the Werewolf by Night brand and stay true to the genre of it all, the creatures, the monsters, the big stuff, all that, but tie it into Native American storytelling, into a Native American background and palette, but still make it a fun adventure story about a kid.’”

Werewolf By Night #1 is set to go on sale in April.
