Ace reporter Carl Kolchak was investigating all things paranormal long before FBI agents Mulder and Scully ever opened their first X-File... The character, played on screen by Darren McGavin, first appeared in TV movie The Night Stalker, which was later followed by a sequel and a series, where he encountered everything from zombies and aliens to Jack the Ripper. Now Newsarama can exclusively reveal that Kolchak is back, in a new three-issue series from Monstrous Books, created by some of the biggest names in horror comics.
Each issue of Kolchak Meets the Classic Monsters will be a self-contained story penned by a different writer and artist. The first, Kolchak Meets the Werewolf and Count Crowley, is written by actor and writer David Dastmalchian and sees the reporter encounter both a werewolf and Dastmalchian's own monster hunter, Count Crowley. It will be drawn by Lukas Ketner and colored by Zac Atkinson, with covers from Ketner and Matt Wagner.
