Harley Quinn meets Elvira in the new superslasher comic series
Dark Horse Comics presents Jumpscare , a new action-horror superhero comic series from Cullen Bunn and Danny Luckert that ties into the Beyond Mortal universe. This four-issue miniseries, written by Bunn, illustrated by Luckert, and lettered by Jim Campbell, takes place after the events of the cosmic horror graphic novel Beyond Mortal and introduces readers to a new horror superhero, Jumpscare.
“Hands down, Jumpscare is some of the most fun I’ve ever had writing a comic,” said Bunn. “I absolutely love this character. She’s everything I love about horror movies, everything I love about superheroes, everything I love about comics, all rolled into one character. If you’re a horror fan, get ready to meet your new favorite superhero.”
"Jumpscare was just an absolute mayhem fueled blast to draw. I can’t wait for people to see her in all her horror fueled glory,” added Luckert.
