Flash Forward: This is the section of Comics Corner where we highlight a horror-related comic series that has yet to be released. This week's pick is R.L. Stine's Man-Thing Vol.1 from Marvel, set to be released on September 19th!
R.L. Stine's Man-Thing Vol.1: "Penciled by GERMAN PERALTA, DANIEL JOHNSON, CHRISTOPHER MITTEN & MORE!
Marvel's melancholy muck-monster as you've never seen him before - courtesy of beloved author R.L. Stine (Goosebumps, Fear Street)! After so many years of somber silence, Man-Thing has found his voice -and taken Hollywood by storm! But when an ancient evil threatens his old swamp stomping ground, Man-Thing will have to choose between his new life and celebrity, and the world he used to call home. An old ally pays a visit, but everything else is out to get Man-Thing -including crocodiles, bats, and mosquitos, oh my! Can the balance of the swamp be restored, or will the cause of this calamity be beyond Man-Thing's control? Plus, bone-chilling bonus horror tales from the master himself, R.L. Stine! Reading this will give you goosebumps...but beware - for whoever knows fear burns at the Man-Thing's touch!
COLLECTING: MAN-THING 1-5.
R.L. Stine (Author), German Peralta (Illustrator), Daniel Warren Johnson (Illustrator), Christopher Mitten (Illustrator), Kate Niemczyk (Illustrator)."

Tamika hails from North Beach, Maryland, a tiny town inches from the Chesapeake Bay.She knew she wanted to be an actor after reciting a soliloquy by Sojourner Truth in front of her entire fifth grade class. Since then, she's appeared in over 20 film and television projects. In addition to acting, Tamika is the Indie Spotlight manager for Daily Dead, where she brings readers news on independent horror projects every weekend.
The first horror film Tamika watched was Child's Play. Being eight years old at the time, she remembers being so scared when Chucky came to life that she projectile vomited. It's tough for her to choose only one movie as her favorite horror film, so she picked two: Nosferatu and The Stepford Wives (1975).
