FEBRUARY 6, NEW YORK -- Over the years, Dark Horse Comics has brought you only the best in monster-versus-monster showdowns. You gasped at Aliens vs. Predator. You screamed in terror at Godzilla vs. Barkley. And now, Dark Horse is proud to present the pinnacle of monster-versus-monster comics -- Werewolves on the Moon: Versus Vampires!

Through all of history, on the night of the full moon, the bloodcurdling cries of werewolves have pierced the night sky. For centuries, werewolves have had to content themselves with shortened forays of feral change as dictated by the source of their power -- the moon! But all that is about to change as three werewolf friends, Ted, Jeff, and Stan, leave Earth and travel to the lunar surface in a quest to become kings of the moon! Unfortunately, Moon Patrol Captain Maggie Pilgrim has other plans . . . As does the hive of vampires living on the dark side!

“People laugh when they hear about this story. But it’s no joke,” said author Dave Land. “I conceived of Werewolves on the Moon: Versus Vampires as a cautionary tale. Back in 2006, when NASA announced plans for a permanent base on the moon, I worked things through in my head . . . and eventual werewolf infestation followed by all-out war with vampires on the lunar surface is the only logical conclusion to that scenario. So don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

“This book is a monsterfest of moonlit mayhem, savage action, and good-humored gore. Sure to be a big hit with fans of werewolves, vampires, and all-out lunar lunacy!” added the Fillbach Brothers, who both spoke at the same time and ended up sounding eerily like those twins from The Shining.

Werewolves on the Moon: Versus Vampires features a story culled from the minds of Matt and Shawn Fillbach (Roadkill, Maxwell Strangewell, Star Wars: Clone Wars Adventures) and Dark Horse’s own Dave Land (Star Wars: Infinities -- The Empire Strikes Back), with art by the Fillbachs and colors by Dan Jackson.

The first fun-filled issue of this three-part action-packed series arrives in stores on June 3, 2009.
