Cosplay or Actual Murderer inYour First Look at STUFF OF NIGHTMARES: RED MURDER #1

Horror Maestro R.L. Stine pens a new macabre tale at BOOM! Studios


LOS ANGELES, CA (August 8, 2023) – BOOM! Studios today revealed a first look at STUFF OF NIGHTMARES: RED MURDER #1, the self-contained special issue in the bestselling, adult horror comic series Stuff of Nightmares from prolific author of legendary terror R.L. Stine (Goosebumps), artist Adam Gorham (The Blue Flame), colorist Francesco Segala, and letterer Jim Campbell, available in September 2023. 

Comic creator Alex Oxaca has been out of the spotlight for decades, and he’ll wish he’d remained in obscurity soon enough. A real ax murderer, cosplaying as the titular hatchet-wielding killer in his early 2000’s smash hit series, Red Murder, starts chopping down equally real victims at a horror convention!

STUFF OF NIGHTMARES: RED MURDER #1 has a main cover by Francesco Francavilla (Night of the Ghoul), with variants by Adam Gorham (The Blue Flame), Miguel Mercado (Go Go Power Rangers), A.L. Kaplan (Maw), Becca Carey (Radiant Black), and Reiko Murakami (Basketful of Heads).
