Aw-woOooo! We are so excited to be the bearers of some most excellent news. Where Wolf is being turned into a graphic novel and will be hitting the road this Spring! That’s right, for twelve chapters, readers followed the adventures of Texas journalist Larry Chaney as a weekly webcomic right here on the digital pages of FANGORIA. Now you’ll have the chance to hold the graphic novel right in your furry little paws, thanks to Encylopocalypse Publications (the independent horror and grindhouse press run by Saturn-Award-winning producer and New York Times bestselling author Mark Alan Miller). The creator-owned graphic novel from creative team Rob Saucedo, Debora Lancianese and Jack Morelli, will hit shelves Friday, July 7 with multiple options to choose from – available in paperback and hardcover formats—with three different cover variants.
This horror-comedy comic book is set in the wild world of furry conventions, small-town Texas journalism and werewolf whodunits. Leading up to the wide release of the book, writer Rob Saucedo will tour movie theaters across the country—screening werewolf films and providing an opportunity to purchase the graphic novel early at concurrent signing events beginning on March 31.
“Where Wolf is a tribute to some of my favorite things— Kolchak: The Night Stalker, Gregory McDonald’s Fletch novels and the weird idiosyncrasies found in small-town Texas life,” says Where Wolf writer Rob Saucedo. “It’s a werewolf story that’s also about people’s capacity to change and become better versions of themselves. I’m very excited to work with the wonderful team at Encyclopocalypse Publications to finally offer a physical copy of the comic in three gorgeously-designed editions.”
“The book had me hooked from page one,” says Encylopocalypse President Mark Alan Miller. “I fucking love werewolf stories, so it was an easy choice for me. Between the book, Rob’s genius, and the nationwide tour Where Wolf will be embarking upon, we have something really special on our hands here.”
In Where Wolf, something scary stalks the streets of Texas, leaving a trail of corpses in its wake. The only person standing in its path is Larry Chaney, a slacker reporter who can’t hold a job, can’t keep a girlfriend, and can’t stop getting in the way of his own career. Larry must go undercover at a local furry convention if he hopes to stop the beast dead set on turning the gathered attendees into an all-you-can-eat buffet. The graphic novel is a love letter to werewolf fans, with an irreverent bent that takes decades of lycanthropic lore to new heights and surprising places.
