About the series
In 2008, Marvel revived the Dead of Night anthology banner with a gritty, four-issue miniseries centered on the swamp-born Man-Thing. Written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and brought to visceral life by artists Nick Percival, Brian Denham, and Javier Saltares, this horror-tinged run follows the elemental creature through the Florida Everglades. It deepens the mythology around Ted Sallis’ monstrous alter ego while introducing occult threats like the sorceress Jennifer Kale and the sinister Roderick Krupp. A dark, moody entry in the Man-Thing’s saga, it stands as a cult-favorite exploration of the character’s tragic, supernatural roots.
