Amazon: The Return of Darkhold to Marvel Comics in October?
The Darkhold is Marvel's version of the Necronomicon. Meant to have existed through the aeons, it sometimes turns up. Of late that has included in the Carnage series, in Secret Empire, and was a major feature of Marvel's Agents of SHIELD TV show.
And it appears that Marvel may have some more plans for later this year. Alongside the Hellstorm Omnibus and the Tomb of Dracula Omnibus, we have these listings.
So close together? Something's up…
