A Brand New Chapter, CRUEL KINGDOM, in the storied tradition of EC Comics is Coming via Oni Press:
Welcome to Cruel Kingdom—the first-ever dark-fantasy anthology from EC, weaving tales of MAGIC, MYTH, and MURDER from shadowy realms that predate our own.
Dive into the savage age of wizards, knights, and dragons, reimagined in the unmistakable EC style. This anthology brings together the formidable talents of Al Ewing (Immortal Hulk), Chris Condon (That Texas Blood), and Greg Pak (Darth Vader), teaming up with the iron-fisted artistry of Kano (Cruel Universe), Leomacs (Ghostlore), and others to craft a spine-chilling new vision of life, death, and adventure “once upon a time.”
From the brilliant minds behind Epitaphs from the Abyss and Cruel Universe, brace yourself for 40 pages of deadly fantasy and treacherous sorcery, all bound within this cursed tome of comic book magic!
