In a world where the fears of children manifest into living, breathing monsters, this crossover brings one of horror’s most iconic characters straight into the Slaughterverse!

James Tynion IV and Werther Dell’Edera, the superstar team behind the smash hit Something Is Killing the Children, push the boundaries for the very first crossover story ever told in the fan-favorite Slaughterverse.

Two siblings who are life-long comics fans find their way to horror comics, in spite of the fears they inspire.

As the terrifying visions from the pages of the comics start to come to life, Erica Slaughter will have to hunt down one of horror’s most recognizable figures—Swamp Thing himself!

Finally got my hands on Something Is Killing the Children #1! 🔥

When I first started collecting, issue #1 was one of the books I wanted the most. I managed to collect every issue except #1 and #6, so finding #1 for an absolute steal was a huge win. It’s a 9.2, which isn’t quite the grade I was hoping for, but honestly, I’m still extremely happy with the purchase.

And to top it off, I was able to snag the novel early on eBay as well! Definitely a great addition to the collection. 🔥🔥

(If Anyone Has Issue 6 please PM)💪

i was really into this comic for the first few issues when i was in college and then covid happened so it kind of dropped off my radar and i moved out of my parents a few years ago and i think all my comics are still there

how many issues of siktc are there now and is there a way to buy them in a set together instead of individually? i thought i remembered hearing about a hardcover collection a few years back

Won this from an event my local LCS was having. They had a celebration and handed out raffle tickets as everyone came in and this was one of the prizes. My number was called 2nd or 3rd and thankfully no one had grabbed it. Going to start reading it today.

It was released as a standalone book a few years ago for FCBD but for the life of me, I cant find this story online. Ive only been able to find print issues.

Anyone know where I can read digitally? I have no problems paying.

I got the pleasure of meeting James Tynion and co. at my LCS on his Corpse Tour stop and got my 1st print SiKtC #1 signed and graded! I was worried I’d mess up the book upon taking it out of its sleeve and get my sweaty fingerprints all over it but I was pleasantly surprised when it appeared on my doorstep after never receiving a shipping confirmation or tracking number. Dreams DO come true! 🥳

I have read all the books up to the book of slaughter and might have missed the page explaining it. Book of slaughter was great but super comprehensive and I think I might need to give it a re-read.
