FIRST LOOK: Upcoming Werewolves vs. Vikings Series 'Viking Moon' Unleashes Vicious Variant Covers

 Plus an extended first look at interior inks


Four more howl-at-the-moon-worthy variant covers by Philippe Xavier, Dalibor Talajic, Möritat, and Frusin will bump up the mounting excitement for the upcoming Viking Moon by Eisner Award winning Joe Pruett (Voices In My Head, Cable, Domino) and legendary artist Marcelo Frusin (Hellblazer, Loveless, Kick-Ass: The New Girl) to beast-mode. The five-issue werewolves vs. Vikings showdown will unleash in September from Image Comics.

"Viking Moon is a project I’ve spent several years researching and crafting, waiting to find that special someone who could bring it to life with me," said Pruett in an exclusive scoop at IGN. "To my ultimate pleasure, that someone was Marcelo Frusin! Marcelo is one of the most accomplished artists in industry and one of my personal all-time favorites! Discovering that he had the same passion for our source material (Vikings and Werewolves!) only cemented to me that he was my perfect partner-in-crime for this tale! I think the work he is doing is some of the best of his career. So, if you love Vikings and Werewolves as much as the two of us do, you are in for a treat!"

The real reason the Vikings fled North America! This barbaric adventure begins in 1003, when Leif Erikson established a Viking settlement in Vneland (present day Newfoundland), a strange new world of plenty. But this untamed frontier is populated by more than an indigenous people… This is something unnatural that stalks the night... Twenty years after the original expedition ended in disaster, a new attempt to settle this wilderness is made. Ulf and his hardened tribe of Vikings soon discover that the whisper of creatures who are both human and beast are not primitive legend, but death-bringing reality.

  • Cover A by Frusin - Lunar Code 0725IM292
