Basilisk

In this three-issue 2022–2023 miniseries from Boom! Studios, writer Cullen Bunn and artist Jonas Scharf reimagine the classic Japanese folktale of the Basilisk as a tense supernatural thriller. Set in a world where a shadowy organization controls a deadly creature, the story follows a desperate father who must navigate a web of betrayal and monstrous power to save his daughter. With Scharf’s moody, atmospheric art and Bunn’s knack for dark, character-driven horror, this compact series delivers a modern, cinematic take on ancient myth.
