Keep an eye out for Billy's stern father, Stan, this spring, because the graphic novel adaptation of George A. Romero's Creepshow is getting re-released this May.
Originally released by Penguin's Plume imprint back in the summer of 1982, the Creepshow graphic novel features Stephen King's five EC Comics-style tales that were brought to life on screen by the Godfather of the Living Dead in one of the horror genre's ultimate anthologies.
The panels are packed with Bernie Wrightson's eye-popping artwork, which can be enjoyed anew soon when the Creepshow graphic novel goes back in print for a May 9th re-release (just don't let Billy's father find you reading it, or it might end up in the trash can).
You can check out Jack Kamen's official cover art below (via Lilja's Library) and visit the graphic novel's Amazon page for more information.
From Amazon: "The graphic novel adaptation of the classic horror anthology film written by Stephen King, with art by Bernie Wrightson!
