Horror comics look to be getting all the attention this week. Besides Black Hole getting snatched up by Netflix, now The Hollywood Reporter has revealed that Blumhouse has emerged victorious in a bidding war for Boom! Studios' long-running comic book series, Something is Killing the Children by James Tynion IV and Werther Dell'Edera.
Initially hitting shelves back in 2019, the series follows Erica Slaughter, who, in the first saga, comes to the aid of a town plagued by child-eating monsters. With only a stuffed octopus to keep her company in her darkest hour, Slaughter sets out putting her name to the test in an effort to put these terrifying monsters down permanently. The series is still ongoing and has expanded further, revealing secret organizations and delving into Erica's past to explore what transformed her into the badass she has become.
