The Lycan is inspired by a story crafted by Thomas Jane and screenwriter David James Kelly, known for his work on Logan. The series is scripted by the acclaimed Mike Carey, who has worked on Lucifer and The Unwritten. The art is brought to life by Diego Yapur, with vibrant coloring by D.C. Alonso, and lettering by AndWorld Design. The talented Tim Bradstreet, recognized for his work on Punisher MAX and Hellblazer, will provide the covers for this gripping series.
Here's the official description from Comixology for The Lycan #1:
Year of Our Lord 1777: A hardened band of international big game hunters returning from Africa are shipwrecked off a small British island.
In exchange for new supplies and the repairing of their good ship The Calydonian, Lord Ludgate engages the men for a task they are particularly well suited for: find the Berserking Beasts that have been eating his subjects, including a group of young Benedictine Nuns, and destroy them.
*The Lycan #1* is set to release digitally on Tuesday, February 18, and will be exclusively available on the Comixology Originals platform. After the series concludes, fans can look forward to a print collection from Ablaze Comics.For more insights into what's coming from Comixology this year, don't miss the five new series unveiled at NYCC 2024.
