What’s this? What’s this? I can’t believe my eyes… It’s an all-new Nightmare Before Christmas comic book miniseries coming from Dynamite, titled Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Shiver of Christmas Town.
Written by Torunn Grønbekk with art by Edu Menna, the four-issue series finds Dr. Finkelstein creating an “unexpectedly adorable” creature a pet… And it’s up to Sally to take care of it. Things don’t go according to plan as the pet takes a liking to Lock, Shock, and Barrel — Oogie Boogie’s three henchmen — instead.
“Disney Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas is a feast of imagination and dark delights, and it has been a joy to play in and contribute to this world,” said Grønbekk via a press release provided to Comic Book Club. “In our story, little goes to plan: tricks are played, treats are had, and along the way, Dr. Finkelstein’s new creation Shiver discovers the true magic of Halloween. Artist Edu Menna captures the gothic, whimsical atmosphere of the movie so beautifully, and I hope the book will introduce a new generation of readers to the enchanting world of Disney Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas.”
Colors are by Adriano Augusto and letters are by Taylor Esposito. Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Shiver of Christmas Town #1 will hit stores in January, featuring covers by Jae Lee, Soo Lee, and Alan Quah. Check out the covers and several unlettered interior pages below!
