I’m a huge fan of the Hammer Studios horror films. They took the classic Universal Monsters and made them more fun and exciting than ever before. Titan Comics is going to be bringing their own enthusiasm to one of the characters in their new comic, The Mummy #1. This series is written by the legendary comics scribe Peter Milligan (Justice League: Dark) and illustrated beautifully by Ronilson Freire (The Green Hornet). Read more about it and check out some images below!

Titan are excited to reveal lettered, interior art for THE MUMMY #1 – a brand-new mini-series that reanimates the character, as imagined by legendary Horror studio, Hammer.

This new line will see the publication of brand-new comic stories featuring classic Hammer properties, as well as wholly original Hammer stories, produced by Titan.

 But this year they have chosen the wrong vessel and she’s not going willingly…
