Halloween is the best time of the year for horror stories, which includes horror manga. Luckily for us, Abrams ComicArts, a division of ABRAMS (Harry N. Abrams, Inc. (HNA)), is here to celebrate Halloween 2024 with a pair of new horror manga. Please welcome for this year's spooky holidays:
Frankenstein: New World #2 finally gives our heroes some friendly fauna to interact with. Even better: they're of the sapient variety, in addition to being amphibious in more meanings than one. I swear, this cover art makes the new world looks like a pizza that's been left to grow mold for too
The Lonesome Hunters #4 shows us that birds will be birds. It doesn't matter how powerful their magic is. All they want are shiny stuff, and this issue demonstrates it in the most darkly hilarious way possible. Lupe to the rescue! With a sword she barely knows how to use! Cover artist: Tyler Crook.
You would think that Bloodborne: The Lady of the Lanterns #2 would continue the storyline from issue #1. If you did though (like I did), then you would be wrong. Because apparently, this comic book is more of an anthology than it is a serialized comic book with an overarching storyline. I really
The Lonesome Hunters #3 finally has our heroes meet the queen of the creepily cute magpies. She wants her shiny back, and she wants it back now. Only, now she may want more shinies to boot. I know they're supposed to be creepy, but all I see are cute birds playing puppeteer with people. Cover

Frankenstein: New World #1 finally gives us a look at what the Earth looks like after it ended. It's as beautiful as it is terrifying. Fortunately, our heroes are Frankenstein and a smart-aleck kid. Neither of them appears to be particularly fazed by the wondrous horrors around them. Yet.
Hellboy and the B.P.R.D.: Time is a River is a somewhat weird and confusing boat ride of a story. The shortness of this ride somehow makes it both better and worse, but it's a decent ride regardless. Especially if you're into Hungarian folklore. Would you believe that the creepy horse lady on the
Bloodborne: The Lady of the Lanterns #1 will teach you that maybe, just maybe, you shouldn't trust creepy singing ghost ladies. They might, just might, not have your best interests in mind. Note: this is not the main character. Main cover artist: Junggeun Yoon. Bloodborne: The Lady of the Lanterns
Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia proves the old adage that no plan survives contact with the enemy in Ep. 5 "A Snake Shows Its Colors, Man Hides His Colors". Admittedly, the plan isn't even Sitara's plan. It's the plan of her mistress Sorghaghtani. However, it still becomes clear that the whole plan
We all have that one film we saw when we were far too young to see. That one movie that we snuck a peek at when our parents went to bed, or movie hopping at the theater to the R-rated movie you couldn't buy a ticket for, or at your friend's house with parents who didn't care what you watched. What
Daemons of the Shadow Realm shows us one of the most wonderfully executed baited traps in Ep. 17 "Crybaby and Naughty Child". All with the intended target of the trap, a traitor within the ranks of the Kagemoris, taking it hook, line, and sinker. The resulting battle as well as the ripple effects
