CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON LIVES! Goes Old School With New Black & White Rerelease
The first issue hits shelves in May.
Harkening back to the era in which its monster first hit the big screen, Skybound Entertainment’s Creature From the Black Lagoon Lives! is getting a special rerelease. The comics publisher just announced that the limited four-issue series is being rereleased in a remastered black and white format, combining the story into a special two-part release hitting shelves in May.
Originally released in 2024, Creature From the Black Lagoon Lives! is written by Dan Watters and Ram V, with art by Matthew Roberts. The series picks up years after the events of the original 1954 film with journalist Kate Marsden on the hunt for a serial killer in the Amazon, only to stumble across the Creature himself, who may well be just as big of a threat. The new black and white edition features completely remastered art, with special new, full-color covers from Roberts, Mark Chiarello, and Abigail Larson.
“After the massive success of our Dracula Black & White Special, we’re thrilled to return to the Black Lagoon!” said Skybound’s Alex Antone. “Dan Watters and Ram V delivered an incredible crime story that fans never saw coming, and Matthew Roberts’ stunning art may look even better in black & white.”
