Skybound Entertainment and Image Comics, in partnership with Universal Products & Experiences, today announced Universal Monsters: The Invisible Man a new four-issue limited comic book series from Eisner Award-winning, bestselling writer James Tynion IV (Something Is Killing the Children, Exquisite Corpses) and acclaimed artist DANI (The Low, Low Woods, Coffin Bound). Unraveling the horrific origins of the iconic monster in an all-new story, this haunting take on The Invisible Man will arrive in comic book shops beginning in August 2025.
The horror dream team of James Tynion IV and DANI, alongside colorist Brad Simpson (The Amazing Spider-Man), reveal their vision for one of the most intriguing monsters in cinematic history! This new series is sure to entice longtime fans of the movie and new fans alike to dive into this new horror classic, with nods to the events of the seminal Universal Pictures film.
“Going back to the first conversation I had with Skybound about the Universal Monsters line, there were two characters I knew I wanted to work on from the start. We started with Dracula, but in my heart my favorite Universal Monster film has always been THE INVISIBLE MAN,” said James Tynion IV. “It’s a thrill to peel back the bandages and approach Griffin’s story from a whole new angle, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be on this ride with DANI.”
"Working on The Invisible Man comic book series with such a great creative team is a dream come true,” said DANI. “I can’t wait to show the world the unshowable!”
Jack Griffin has always been invisible to the people around him—at least in his own mind. But when an experimental breakthrough presents a path to make his dreams of invisibility a reality, no one—not even the woman he loves—will stand in his way.
Witness Griffin’s legendary descent into madness as his humanity fades away and the monster inside is revealed, leaving only…THE INVISIBLE MAN!
“James Tynion IV is one of the best horror writers this industry has ever seen, and THE INVISIBLE MAN is the character DANI was born to draw,” said Alex Antone, Editorial Director at Skybound. “These two powerhouses have created something truly special with this book… and just like the Invisible Man, comic fans won’t see it coming!”
This collaboration between Skybound and Universal Products & Experiences is the latest milestone in a near decade long relationship that encompasses film, video games, and now comic book publishing. Universal Monsters: The Invisible Man is the fifth Universal Monsters series launch, following James Tynion IV and Martin Simmonds’ Dracula (which netted Simmonds a BEST PAINTER/MULTIMEDIA ARTIST (INTERIOR ART) Eisner Award nomination); Ram V, Dan Watters, and Matthew Roberts’ Creature from the Black Lagoon Lives!; Michael Walsh’s Frankenstein; and Faith Erin Hicks’ The Mummy.
The Invisible Man will be followed by additional new limited series pairing the biggest names in comics with pop culture’s most iconic monsters.
Universal Monsters: The Invisible Man #1 (of 4) (Lunar Codes Coming Soon | SRP: $4.99) will be available at comic book shops and digital platforms including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play on Wednesday, August 27, 2025.
