In the early 1900s, Henry Naughton returns home to the family farm in the swampy Pine Barrens of southern New Jersey. One night, he encounters a strange predator stalking the woods. This sends the young scholar on a research project that uncovers the legend of Mother Leeds and the terrible birth of the JERSEY DEVIL in 1735. James Tynion IV (BLUE BOOK, Something is Killing the Children) and Steve Foxe (Dark X-Men, All Eight Eyes along with Piotr Kowalski (Bloodborne, Where Monsters Lie) bring the Jersey Devil to life in a supernatural tale of horror that peels back unknown layers of history and reveals local monsters and universal terrors. The first in a new series of TRUE WEIRD tales of cryptids from James Tynion IV and Tiny Onion! Four issue series.

Reviews


A fun period piece about the true story behind the Jersey Devil, if you believe in such things. Printed under James Tynion's 'True Weird' imprint (Blue Book), he and co-writer Steve Foxe give us an educated boy in Henry Naughton. His father has died in an as yet undisclosed accident, and his family needs help at home. He's frowned upon by his mother and brother, mocked by town folk, but he has seen something. Something he can't explain. Something given up from the bowels of the earth. Something cursed.

Piotr Kowalski's (Where Monsters Dwell, Christmas 365) art has always had a throwback old work print feel too it, making it an excellent fit for the material.

One bonus Graham for the flashback sequence at the end of the book.
