ICYMI: Dr. Frankenstein Has Arrived in 'Broken Moon' #3
If you're not already reading it, then you should probably know that Steve Niles and Nat Jones' Broken Moon is a comic that started with the premise of the moon getting obliterated by nuclear weapons, and somehow just keeps getting more and more over the top from there. Witness, for example, the penultimate issue of the saga, where the post-apocalyptic war between vampires and werewolves brings in the leader of its third faction: Dr. Victor Frankenstein. Unfortunately for the humans and werewolves who are interested in not being turned into dinner in a the nightmarish post-lunar-nuclear hellscape, Dr. Frankenstein isn't exactly the helpful type. And to see exactly how unhelpful he can be, check out a few pages below!

Vampires Take The Nuclear Option In 'Broken Moon'
Steve Niles has made something of a career in comics out of figuring out interesting new ways to let vampires just hang out all the time without being boxed in by those pesky fatal sunburns that come from daylight. His breakout hit was, after all, 30 Days of Night alongside Ben Templesmith, a book that was built entirely around that premise and resulted in a pretty fun read. But once you've gone there, you're left with a question of where to go that's even bigger. For Niles and Nat Jones, the answer is clear: You nuke the moon.

Last autumn, IDW launched The October Faction, a new ongoing series by Steve Niles and Damien Worm that tells the story of Fredrick Allan, a retired monster hunter who finds his well-being and family threatened by long-buried secrets. It's a creepy, atmospheric book, filled with new twists on classic horror tropes. With issue #6 arriving in stores next week, we got the chance to sit down with Niles to talk about how this title came to be and what he has planned for the future.

Grant Morrison's 'Sinatoro' Among Black Mask Titles For 2015
Grant Morrison has been talking about his film passion project, a psychedelic Western called Sinatoro, since at least 2010. It was even promoted with a poster. But the writer's screenplay has ended up taking the route so many projects take on the way to becoming movies: It will be a comic first. Morrison will work with artist Vanesa Del Rey on the series, which will come out some time next year from Black Mask Studios, the comics and transmedia company launched last year by comics artist Ben Templesmith, writer Steve Niles, Bad Religion guitarist/songwriter Brett Gurewitz and Matt Pizzolo of Occupy Comics. It's one piece of a big and not too shabby slate of new comics coming from the publisher in the next year, the highlights of which you can check out below.
