JAMES TYNION IV, TATE BROMBAL E ISAAC GOODHART, REGRESAN ESTE JUNIO CON MONSTERS IN LOVE LA HISTORIA DE APOYO DE “THE ODDLY PEDESTRIAN LIFE OF CHRISTOPHER CHAOS: CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT”

 

La exitosa serie de terror LGBTQ+ de James Tynion IV (Algo está matando a los niños, La bonita casa junto al mar), Tate Brombal (La casa de la matanza, Batgirl) e Isaac Goodhart (THE ODDLY PEDESTRIAN LIFE OF CHRISTOPHER CHAOS, Constantine: Ilusiones distorsionadas), regresa este junio con un nuevo y aterrador arco argumental: Hijos de la noche. Dark Horse anuncia que cada número de Children of the Night incluirá una historia especial de 8 páginas en formato flipbook titulada "Monstruos enamorados". La historia del primer número estará escrita e ilustrada por Bradley Clayton y rotulada por Aditya Bidikar (Dawnrunner, Blue Book), y en los próximos números se incluirán historias de Chloe Brailsford, Marie Enger y K Czap. Cada historia es independiente y combina terror y romance al estilo de las antologías clásicas de cómics de EC, a partir del cómic de nuestro héroe Christopher Chaos. Además de las portadas de Noah Dao, Gabriel Hernández Walta, Michael Dialynas y Sweeney Boo, el número 1 también incluye la contraportada ilustrada por V. Gagnon.

"Me propuse combinar lo que más me gusta de los vampiros y las comedias románticas para crear a los amantes desventurados de mi historia MONSTRUOS ENAMORADOS", comentó Clayton sobre su historia. "Un apasionado romance playero con una criatura inmortal de la noche, ¿qué podría salir mal?".

“Con MONSTRUOS ENAMORADOS, nos emociona dar vida al cómic favorito de Christopher Chaos”, añadió Tynion. “Estas historias son una excusa para darles mi inspiración favorita a los creadores: historias románticas protagonizadas por sus monstruos de terror favoritos. ¡Estoy deseando que todos vean lo que tenemos preparado para ustedes!”.

It’s a book about growing up, taking chances, love, loss, mortality, and morality.”—The Convention Collective "Simply put, this is the type of book that will remind you why you check out new monthly comics. The idea is clever and odd, the execution equally so, and the visuals fantastic, with clean and polished linework complimented perfectly by the letters and colors."—Comics Beat "The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos #1 stands tall as an engaging opening to a story rife with whimsy and charm. It contains enough narrative richness within its moments of open table setting to act as both an excellent standalone tale, as well as the first chapter in an expectedly great series."—Comic Watch "The weird mixture of horror, science fiction, and coming-of-age drama somehow works together beautifully. The horror elements are genuinely scary, the science fiction elements are interesting and thought-provoking, and the coming-of-age drama is touching and relatable."—Capes & Tights
