You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Mar 17, 2026It’s reassuring that Skybound has decided to invest a bit more into this concept. It’s going to be a five-part mini-series that should be fun to explore in simple moments. And though it would be kind of cool to have all of these stories fit into some kind of hellish shared universe of horror, it’s fun just to see them do what they’re doing with isolated concepts in and within the superhero horror hybrid. There’s a lot of potential in the mash-up genre. It’ll be interesting to see where they go with it. Read Full Review

Mar 17, 2026Super Creepshow #1 proves the Creepshow formula works well with superhero ideas. Gillen and Gifford deliver a nasty body horror riff on the spider bite origin that feels disturbing and unpredictable, while North and Charm explore the terrifying implications of super speed with a story that turns vengeance into a nightmare. Both tales lean into horror first while still playing with superhero concepts readers know well. The anthology format leaves some ideas feeling a bit rushed, but the creative teams deliver enough shocks, clever twists, and gruesome imagery to make this a strong opening for the series.
