“You Better Watch Out! For the Third Year Running, EC and Oni Press Present 56 Pages of Head-Lopping Holiday Horror Courtesy of John Arcudi, Sarah Gailey, Ryan Kelly, David Lapham & More!”

Thanks to Oni Press and William M. Gaines Agent, Inc. we are excited to share with Daily Dead the readers the first details and cover art for the giant-sized SHIVER SUSPENSTORIES 3 #1, “an all-new, all-unhinged 56-page giant featuring EC Comics’ most terrifying assembly of sickenin’ stocking stuffers yet!”

From the Press Release: “That’s right, SHIVER SUSPENSTORIES is back . . . and we’re bringing three times the chills, three times the spills, and three times the murderous intent with us for our most vengeful celebration of X-mas anarchy and New Year’s nightmares ever attempted on December 9th!

For the third year running, gather ʼround our flaming hearth and join tortured (literally!) creators John Arcudi (B.P.R.D., The Mask), Sarah Gailey (Eat the Rich), Ryan Kelly (Stranger Things), David Lapham (Stray Bullets), Jay Stephens (Dwellings), and more surprise guests as we begin a frightening festival of merciless merriment and holiday horror, all tinseled up in the mangled EC Comics manner!

Plus: For your reading displeasure, feast upon another restored and remastered EC classic straight from the Vault-Keeper’s lair! Heh heh, ho ho, this Christmas season, someone’s gotta go! Just remember, kids: Some stains don’t come out . . . especially under Luminol!

“Get into the gore-infested holiday spirit with some all-new thrills and chills, courtesy of EC Comics’ bloodiest creators!” said Oni Press Editor Allyson Gronowitz. “Wintertime madness, holiday party greed, and an encounter with good ol’ Santa’s ‘Naughty List’… EC’s third installment of SHIVER SUSPENSTORIES is sure to leave readers aghast and appalled!”

Get into the spirit with killer covers from Dustin Weaver (Avengers, Infinity), Steve Lieber (Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen), Shawn McManus (Fables), and Rian Hughes (The Multiversity)! Tell Santa to make with the comic – or else!!!– when SHIVER SUSPENSTORIES 3 #1 comes calling on December 9th!”
