What would happen if a ravenous werewolf used a furry convention to hide after amassing a body count?
Then you’d have Where Wolf, the new graphic novel from creative team Rob Saucedo, Debora Lancianese, and Jack Morelli. Per Deadline, Where Wolf will release as an exclusive free weekly webcomic on Fangoria.com on Wednesday, July 13.
It’s a werewolf whodunnit and a love letter to lycanthrope fans, set in small town Texas.
If that’s not enough, the graphic novel has already been optioned for film, podcast, and television development ahead of launch by producers James Fino (“The Freak Brothers” for Tubi, “Rick and Morty” for Adult Swim) and Charles Horak (First Date for Magnolia Pictures).
In Where Wolf, “something scary stalks the streets of Texas, leaving a trail of corpses in its wake. The only person standing in its way is Larry Chaney, a slacker reporter who can’t hold a job, can’t keep a girlfriend, and can’t stop getting in the way of his own career. Larry must go undercover at a local furry convention if he has any hope of stopping the beast dead set on turning the gathered attendees into an all-you-can-eat buffet.”
“Where Wolf is a tribute to some of my favorite things – Kolchak: The Night Stalker, Gregory McDonald’s Fletch novels and the weird idiosyncrasies found in small-town Texas life,” says Where Wolf writer Rob Saucedo. “It’s about werewolves but it’s also about people’s capacity to change and become better versions of themselves. I’m excited to be working with the legendary Fangoria brand to introduce this very personal story to horror-loving audiences around the world.”
“I’ve long known Robert as a dyed-in-the-wool monster kid who knows his stuff, and his epic take on lycanthropic lore is hilarious, gory and touching in ways that will surprise readers,” says Fangoria editor-in-chief Phil Nobile Jr. “It’s going to be THE summer read for fans of horror comics.”
Read new chapters of Where Wolf every week. The series will run through September 28.
