Finally. Finally something that Hellraiser fans can be excited about! No, not the movie news you’d like to hear answering your prayers that they won’t destroy your beloved group of seriously cenobitic, satanic soldiers, but how about a brand new comic book series? Huh? Huh? (nudge, nudge)...

Follow up:

Yeah, I know it’s not much of a consolation, but it does actually look really cool and hopefully it will fill the void until the powers that be figure out what their doing with the movies.

Clive Barker and BOOM! Studios have been working together to launch an all new, ongoing comic book series that is actually debuting today at your local comic book store! This is actually only the third time that Clive Barker has “touched” the beloved characters since his novella THE HELLBOUND HEART and the original HELLRAISER movie itself.

Here are a few details about the series;

 Hellraiser: Prelude is a complete, self-contained original eight-page Hellraiser story.
 The story takes place before Issue #1 of the new Hellraiser ongoing comic, written by Clive Barker and drawn by Leonardo Manco.
 This IS NOT a preview of anything from the first issue. This is all new, all original content.
 There is no way to get this content outside of the PDF provided here. It will not be put into print until the TPB collection.

There, now you know what’s in the box!
