JULY 21, (PORTLAND, OR) — What happens when fear itself becomes the most dangerous monster in town?
Move over Geraldo, Mad Cave Studios invites readers back to one of the most paranoid chapters in American history with SATANIC PANIC, a relentless new four-issue horror series that blends classic slasher terror with the most hysterical media frenzy of the 1980s.
Written by Ringo and GLAAD Media Award winner Matt Miner (Poser, Young Men in Love, Critical Hit) and art by Clayton McCormack(Batman: White Knight Presents – Generation Joker), with colors by Oliver Mertz, letters by Matt Krotzer, and haunting cover art by Clayton McCormack—featuring variant covers B, C, and D by Justin Coffee—Satanic Panic delivers a blood-soaked mystery where paranoia spreads faster than the body count.
A sleepy 1980s town is stalked by a masked slasher at the height of the Satanic Panic, where every heavy metal record, Dungeons & Dragons campaign, and teenage outsider is treated as evidence of devil worship. As fear spreads and bodies pile up, three local misfits become the prime suspects in a series of gruesome murders.
Join D&D geeks and Ozzy enthusiasts Naz, Sal, and Terry as they race to clear their names, survive an increasingly blood-soaked town, and unmask the real killer before paranoia claims more innocent lives. But in a community eager to blame the weird kids, proving their innocence may be deadlier than facing the murderer.
