After originally being released as a four-issue series, Skybound’s Universal Monsters: Creature From the Black Lagoon Lives! is getting remastered and reprinted as a two issue series. Or rather, the first two issues are getting reprinted in black and white.
“After the massive success of our Dracula Black & White Special, we’re thrilled to return to the Black Lagoon!” said Alex Antone, Editorial Director at Skybound. “Dan Watters and Ram V delivered an incredible crime story that fans never saw coming, and Matthew Roberts’ stunning art may look even better in black & white.”
As mentioned, the book is written by Dan Watters and Ram V, with art by Matthew Roberts. In it, we get a sequel to the original Creature feature as, per PR, “Journalist Kate Marsden hunts for a notorious serial killer in the heart of the Amazon. Hot on the trail of this madman, she soon encounters an unexpected new threat–but is he a friend or foe? Or is he simply…THE CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON?”
Universal Monsters: Creature From the Black Lagoon Lives! Black & White Special #1 hits stores on Wednesday, May 27, 2026 and Universal Monsters: Creature From the Black Lagoon Lives! Black & White Special #2 hits stores on June 24, 2026. Check out the full-color covers below.
