Supernatural Comic Book Series Brings The Winchesters Back!
All-New Stories by Greg Pak & Eder Messias Starting October!
| 
July 21, Mt. Laurel, NJ: Dean and Sam are back, and fans are invited by Dynamite Entertainment and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products to hit the road again in a brand-new Supernatural comic book series debuting this October!
The legendary Winchester brothers are once more prowling the highways and byways of small-town America, on their mission to root out demons, ghosts, and monsters wherever they can be found. This comic book series featuring brand new tales is set between the foundational first and second seasons of the revered Warner Bros. Television series, bringing readers back to the early era of adventures where the dark magic first began. The bickering brothers will be confronted with a disturbing new threat to take down before they can turn their focus to vengeance for their departed mother.
Acclaimed author Greg Pak (Darth Vader, Lilo & Stitch) takes on the task of writing two of the most iconic characters in media for one of the most dedicated fandoms. He's joined by gifted artist Eder Messias, reuniting following their collaboration on Sam Wilson: Captain America. Alongside the rest of the creative team, Pak and Messias are excited to bring fans never-before revealed chapters of Supernatural!
Writer Greg Pak shared, "A couple of dudes in a cool car chasing monsters, demons, and ghosts? Tongue-in-cheek, but deeply-felt emotional story of sibling rivalry and family tragedy? Hugely fun, anti-authoritarian heroes and vibes? Look, I was hooked with the ghosts, but I'm all in. Fans of Supernatural know the show is a blast and it's an enormous pleasure and privilege to be able to dig into this wild world, especially with Eder Messias. We're going for fun and grounded, and then we're going to absolutely cut loose when the time comes. I can't wait to show more, and thanks so much to everyone for coming along for the ride!"
"When I received the invitation to work on the Supernatural comic book series, I almost fell out of my chair!," added artist Eder Messias. "It is by far my favorite television series. Here in Brazil, on Saturday nights, they would show four episodes in a row. After that, we would spend the week talking to friends about the next episodes. I'm looking forward to bringing this story to fans and giving it my best!"
To kick off the Supernatural comic book series, the monster hunters will hear of a series of mysterious fires haunting a decaying rust belt town. When a local factory burns down, followed by several employees going up in flames, and the CEO is suspiciously well-prepared, it's up to Dean and Sam to figure out what's going on and set it straight!
The new comic book series is complemented by atmospherically arresting covers from superstar Clayton Crain, as well as David Cousens and interior artist Eder Messias, plus special photo covers from the show.
Supernatural ran for 15 seasons on The CW. Across over 300 episodes, it is the longest-running American live-action fantasy show and remains one of the most beloved franchises by fans.
