"Life can't get much weirder in the spooky city of Dunwich Heights. That is until junior occultist Martin Magus discovers a cursed ring that gives him the power to summon a trio of spirits to form MEGAGHOST, a giant supernatural robot sworn to defend the world against magical monsters, otherworldly menaces, and other creepy things that go SMASH in the night! And just in time, too, because a gang of juvenile delinquent cultists are plotting the ultimate act of rebellion - raising a demon from the depths with one goal on its mind: DESTROY DUNWICH HEIGHTS!

Written by Gabe Soria (Midnight Arcade, Batman '66) and illustrated by Eisner Award-winning artist Gideon Kendall (Marley's Ghost), MEGAGHOST is an action-packed, arcane adventure that mixes Saturday morning cartoon thrills with supernatural chills! Contains the entire Megaghost series (issues #1-5), the Megaghost Spook House feature story, 8 pages of brand new never before seen story content, and is packed with sketchbook material!"

    Raised on a steady diet of R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps books and Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Derek has been fascinated with fear since he first saw ForeverWare being used on an episode of Eerie, Indiana.

    When he’s not writing about horror as the Senior News Reporter for Daily Dead, Derek can be found daydreaming about the Santa Carla Boardwalk from The Lost Boys or reading Stephen King and Brian Keene novels.
