James Tynion IV and Werther Dell\u2019Edera Expand the Horizons of The SlaughterVerse<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

LOS ANGELES, CA (October 11, 2025) <\/strong>\u2013  For the first time ever, BOOM! Studios\u2019 award winning comic book series, co-created by James Tynion IV and Werther Dell\u2019Edera, Something is Killing the Children<\/em>, is crossing over with something dark from DC in the just announced one-shot special SWAMP THING IS KILLING THE CHILDREN<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Eisner-winning creative team and co-creators of Something is Killing the Children<\/em> are teaming up to tell this exciting, bold new chapter combining the dark supernatural existentialism fans have come to expect from DC\u2019s Swamp Thing<\/em>, and the kinetic, visceral monster killing heroism that has made Something is Killing the Children<\/em> a household name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt’s such an incredible thing to see Erica Slaughter next to Swamp Thing\u201d said Josh Hayes, Vice President of Consumer Sales and Marketing at BOOM! Studios.  \u201cLen Wein and Bernie Wrightson are synonymous with comics I grew up on, and absolute masters of their craft.  To have modern masters like James Tynion IV and Werther Dell\u2019Edera telling a tale like this is something \u2013 I mean Swamp Thing that I can\u2019t wait to read!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019ll admit the sheer brilliance of the title alone was reason enough to get excited about this,\u201d said Chris Conroy, Executive Editor for the DC Black Label imprint, \u201cbut James and Werther have gone deep and created a story that\u2019s just as ambitious as any of the other classics in the Swamp Thing library. I think fans of both the SlaughterVerse and of the darker side of DC comics are going to be shocked and delighted when they see what we\u2019ve been up to!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
