"With Corpse Knight, Michael Chaves has crafted an emotional journey through a beautifully dark fantasy world that feels both mythic and deeply haunting. It's a story that lingers long after the final page has been read.” —James Wan (Saw, Insidious)
Acclaimed horror filmmaker Michael Chaves and artist Matthew Roberts team up to lead a father and daughter on an epic quest across war-torn France, filled with questions of faith and the undead.
A FANTASTICAL HORROR STORY ABOUT HOW FAR FAMILY WILL GO TO PROTECT EACH OTHER.
As war ravages France, a young girl named Foy lives in relative peace with her father... until tragedy strikes. As Foy struggles to fend for herself, she’s granted a miracle—her father returns from the dead to protect her.
Now, they embark on a sacred quest, confronting murderers, wild animals, wandering armies, and black magic plaguing the countryside. As Foy comes face to face with the dark side of miracles and the secrets of the Corpse Knight, she must question if the man by her side has always been a monster...
Acclaimed storytellers Michael Chaves (The Conjuring franchise) and Matthew Roberts (Universal Monsters: Creature from The Black Lagoon Lives!) present a haunting new horror series where family is family, whether they’re alive or undead...
Collects Corpse Knight #1-6.
"Michael Chaves brings a cinematic sensibility that gives each moment room to breathe, building tension through character and setting before unleashing full horror. Matthew Roberts and Rico Renzi elevate the material with striking imagery that shifts from grounded and somber to grotesque and supernatural." * AIPT Comics *
"A mix of Frankenstein and Game of Thrones-- definitely the best parts of both! Foy and her dad make for the perfect protagonist to follow in a time and place framed by its brutality. A must read!" -- Jorge Corona (TRANSFORMERS)
"Dark fantasy is one of my favourite genres and, unfortunately, one of the most underserved genres in the comics medium. I was thrilled when I read the blurb for this book and even more thrilled when it delivered in every conceivable way. Fast-paced with great characters, kinetic linework and colours that pop right off the page. Corpse Knight is a bloody good time." -- Michael Walsh (Universal Monsters: Frankenstein)
