The Lycan is inspired by a story from Jane and screenwriter David James Kelly (known for Logan), with a script penned by Mike Carey (acclaimed for Lucifer and The Unwritten). The art is brought to life by Diego Yapur, with coloring by D.C. Alonso, and lettering by AndWorld Design. The series will feature stunning covers by Tim Bradstreet, celebrated for his work on Punisher MAX and Hellblazer.
Here's the official description from Comixology for The Lycan #1:
Year of Our Lord 1777: A hardened band of international big game hunters, returning from Africa, find themselves shipwrecked off a small British island.
In exchange for new supplies and the repair of their vessel, The Calydonian, Lord Ludgate enlists their expertise for a daunting task: to hunt down and eradicate the Berserking Beasts terrorizing his subjects, including a group of young Benedictine Nuns.
*The Lycan #1* will be available digitally starting Tuesday, February 18, exclusively on the Comixology Originals platform. After the series concludes, Ablaze Comics will offer a print collection.For more insights into what's coming from Comixology this year, don't miss the five new series unveiled at NYCC 2024.
