Skeeters: The B-horror Comic That Goes Buzz from Mad Cave Studios

Putting a little bug in your ear… Mad Cave Studios is proud to announce the forthcoming horror/sci-fi series, Skeeters, from the Ringo Award-nominated dynamic writing duo, Kevin Cuffe and Bob Frantz, featuring art by Kelly Williams, with editing and letters by Chas! Pangburn.

Small town hijinks ensue as extraterrestrial mosquitos descend on a sleepy beach town.

When giant mosquito-like alien creatures invade a rural seaside community, a frustrated sheriff and two oddball exterminators end up being the town’s only hope for survival. A comedic and gruesome story for fans of Slither, Arachnophobia, and other classic creature-features!

“When Bob and I started this story we knew we wanted to do a B-movie parody, but ended up making an A-plus comic, thanks to the hard work of Kelly Williams,” said Kevin Cuffe. “Kelly just slays every page while keeping things fun—gross, goopy and beautiful—like a mid-summer sunset in swampy Kankakee county.”

“Skeeters is a love letter to all the wonderfully schlocky creature features I adore,” said Bob Frantz. “Kevin and I wrote a fun script but the magic is in Kelly’s breathtaking artwork. The gore flies off the page. It’s the perfect marriage.”

“I’m excited for people to read this deep dive study into the human condition,” said Kelly Williams. “The human condition of being torn apart by giant bug things! We had a blast with this book. Kevin and Bob put together a script that is deserving of being held up right next to movies like Them, Mosquito and The Fly.”

Skeeters #1 is now available for pre-order only on the Mad Cave Studios website, and drops in shops Dec. 6.
