October 13, Mt. Laurel, NJ: Dynamite Entertainment is bringing the drive-in experience straight to fans! The brand-new MonsterVision comics saga starring Joe Bob Briggs and Darcy the Mail Girl in its complete graphic novel glory is live now on Kickstarter for fans to reserve for their reading!
The peerlessly charismatic genre host and his powerhouse co-star take readers on an exhilarating, monster-hunting expedition brimming with campy B-movie scares, abundant referential nods, and a groundbreaking twist that fundamentally reshapes their iconic partnership. Fans excited for the story can get it through this avenue to receive the complete five chapter fable in one deluxe package, and with exclusive extras not being offered anywhere else!
The story is scripted by writer David Avallone, who brings his horror-host expertise over from prolific contributions to the tales of Elvira: Mistress of the Dark. He’s a master of the macabre, a prodigy of pulp, and crafter of camp who’s the perfect fit for the Lone Star State’s foremost film critic and superstar of schlock and screams. Avallone’s experience with Elvira as well as other delightful dames like Bettie Page makes him a perfect fit for the fan-favorite Darcy the Mail Girl as well. Joining him in the drive-in journey is artist Edu Menna, known for hit titles like Alice Cooper, KISS, and Vampirella.
Fans who pledge for the Kickstarter within its first 72 hours will also receive an exclusive FREE MonsterVision trading card!
The graphic novel can be secured as a paperback, hardcover, as well as editions signed by writer David Avallone, Darcy, or Joe Bob. Fan-favorite artist Ken Haeser will also be doing exclusive one-of-one remarques on books. Other add-ons that will only be available through the Kickstarter are high quality lithograph prints.
