March 21th, 2016—Los Angeles, CA
It’s the chapter on World War I you didn’t read about in high school! The one that involved monsters, mayhem, and the severed head of medusa! Detective Barrymore has seen a lot in his lifetime, but sometimes one face can bring back those dark memories that were once forgotten about in the crevices of the mind! MONSTER WORLD #3 by Philip Kim, Steve Niles, Piotr Kowalski, and Dennis Calero will be available to purchase on CaptainCo, Comixology, and comic shops everywhere March 23th, 2016. Variant interlocking cover by Nigel Sade.
Barrymore recalls his first meeting with the makeup artist they call John Price—twenty years previously, on a World War I battlefield. But his memories of the night are muddled, and he decides to pay World Studios a visit. Soon everything comes to light as Barrymore is exposed to the secret that has kept the studio running for years!
