Marvel Comics Uncancels Hellstrom: Prince Of Lies

Last month, Bleeding Cool informed you that Marvel Comics had cancelled the upcoming Hellstrom: Prince Of Lies collection, upon which the upcoming Hulu TV show, Helstrom, is based. Because they had. We checked in, it was confirmed to us, that it was down to lower sales than anticipated but it might return when the TV show airs and might provide higher sales.

But a week is a long time in comic books. And it appears that decision has been reversed. And that cancellation has been uncancelled. The Hellstrom: Prince Of Lies collection, will now again be published in October collecting Hellstorm: Prince Of Lies #1-11, the series before Warren Ellis came on board to write the book, the switch of title from Hellstorm to Hellstrom was to slightly reflect the upcoming Helstrom TV series.
