LOS ANGELES, CA (December 18, 2024) – BOOM! Studios today revealed a lovely first look at HELLO DARKNESS #7, the horrifying continuation to the new ongoing anthology series featuring what BOOM! Studios is known for–the best in modern Horror, Fantasy, and Mystery, not to mention the darkest stories yet from a murderer’s row of world class creators including R.L. Stine, Francesco Francavilla, Garth Ennis, Becky Cloonan, James Tynion IV, Werther Dell’Edera, John Arcudi, Ryan Sook, Cullen Bunn, Daniel Bayliss, Sas Milledge, Sarah Gailey, Liana Kangas, Marguerite Bennett, Luana Vecchio, Michael W. Conrad, Martín Morazzo, Andy Lanning, Trevor Hairsine, Steve Orlando, A.L. Kaplan, Genevieve Valentine, Ming Doyle, Jude Ellison S. Doyle, Letizia Cadonici, Sarah Andersen, Chuck Tingle, Robert Hack, and more! Everything from primal fears to modern political horrors will be explored, in the classic style of Creepy and Eerie and the contemporary chills of Black Mirror.
Does your beloved prefer the putrid stench of corpse flowers or the warm, metallic aroma of flowers made of corpses? Either way, Hello Darkness is the perfect compliment to a bouquet and a heart-shaped box full of still-beating hearts with special stories of romance! It all starts with “L-O-V-E” by Griffin Sheridan, Ethan Parker, and Edison Neo, a heart-wrenching-out-of-chests twist of a slasher tale! Plus more-sickly-than-sweet tales of loves lost, changed, and downright strange in “Words in the Smoke” by Maria Llovet, “Evermore” by David Hazan and Stefano Nesi, “The Booth” by Anirudh J, and “Excision” by Chris Gooch and Eli Powell! All this and more romantic rejection and rollicks in another of Robert Hack’s “I Can’t Take You Anywhere” and more!
