| Werewolves... on the Moon!! |
 by Fëanor |
A while back, I was reading Comic Shop News and came across a title of an upcoming release that struck me as so terrible and awesome and wonderful that I had to Twitter about it immediately. It was called Werewolves on the Moon: Versus Vampires. There wasn't much detail about the comic, so my fellow Twitterers and I were free to speculate, and we came to the conclusion that werewolves on the moon would remain werewolves perpetually, as long as they stayed on the light side. Also, there would be nothing to eat, but since werewolves can't die of starvation, they'd just wander around up there being really hungry. Which is why I've added the phrase "hungry as a werewolf on the moon" to my personal lexicon.
Anyway, all of this is just to explain why, now that I've found an actual plot summary for this comic in the latest issue of Comic Shop News, I feel I must reprint it here in full.
Through all of history, on the night of the full moon, the bloodcurdling cries of werewolves have pierced the night sky. For centuries, werewolves have had to content themselves with shortened forays of feral change as dictated by the source of their power - the moon! But all that is about to change as three werewolf friends - Ted, Jeff, and Stan - leave Earth and travel to the lunar surface in a quest to become kings of the moon! Unfortunately, Moon Patrol captain Maggie Pilgrim has other plans... as does the hive of vampires living on the dark side! See what happens next in Werewolves on the Moon: Versus Vampires #1, the debut issue of a three-parter by Dave Land and Matt & Shawn Fillbach.
I have to admit, I'm curious. I don't know if I'll buy it, but I'm definitely going to have to at least pick it up and flip through it in the store. |
