Review:

After all those years, after a few movies and a tv-series… finally Creepshow is back where it needs to be, in the land of Graphic Novels, there where it is best suited!

Ten horrific stories by ten different scenarists and artists who each bring a new tale to life introduced by the rotting corpse called ‘The Creep’!

In this collection Halloween makes up a rule you better obey (Take one), a children’s party might become a feast… for the party clown (Shingo), a next door tree has an appetite (The Gorgahmorahh Tree), you don’t mess with the creator of a children’s cartoon figure (Creator’s Rites), hunters become the hunted (Hair), vanity is payed dearly (The Bridge), vampires are very patient (Come out, come out, wherever you are), a Luchadores mask had a secret (La Mascara de la Muerte), more vanity with a steep price (Thirst Trap) & not all debutants are what they seem to be (Husk)!

No Stephen King, Bernie Wrightson ie George A. Romero this time but a new batch of artists and writers, giving the legendary Creepshow a new direction!

The creator of the tv-show (who also directed and produced a lot of the Walking Dead episodes) Greg Nicotero has a little foreword in this volume.

Not every story has a punch but each tale does have some great artwork! It’s the different artists combined with chilling stories that makes me want more of this! Lucky for me, there is more!

By now three volumes have been released collection several of these little tales. As The Creep himself says: “Witness ten terrifying tales guaranteed to thrill and chill you to the bone!”
