With another year coming to a close, one thing remains a constant. Stephen King is not only our premiere horror scribe; the dude only seems to get more prolific with age. So I guess it comes as little surprise when we report that Marvel is set to adapt King’s short story “N” in the form of a 4-part graphic novel. Pretty sweet tits though!
Premiering in King’s recently released collection of stories entitled Just After Sunset, “N” essentially entails the story of something terrifying hidden in Ackerman’s Field. A bizarre arrangement of eight stones keeps a nightmare contained, but when in the eye of an unfortunate beholder–the eight stones become seven, the fabric of what we think is real begins to shred, and an unbearable doom seizes the mind.
King as only the King can do it!
The project will be brought to life by Mark Guggenheim and Alex Maleev (who also oversaw the motion comic of “N”), with Marvel SVP Ruwan Jayatilleke noting “It’s absolutely thrilling for Marvel to be working on ‘N’ again and having the honor to publish it as a comic book miniseries…Both as a fan of the story and a producer on the ‘N.’ motion comic, I am absolutely psyched for the terrifying ride that Marc, Alex, and the editors have planned for readers!”
Look for the first issue this coming March!
