Freddy Krueger's A Nightmare on Elm Street

In 1989, Marvel Comics brought the dream-haunting terror of Freddy Krueger to the printed page with a two-issue series simply titled Freddy Krueger's A Nightmare on Elm Street. Written by the acclaimed Steve Gerber, with art by a rotating team of Alfredo Alcala, Tony DeZuniga, and Rich Buckler, this short-lived but memorable run captured the slasher icon's signature blend of dark humor and nightmare logic. Though brief, it stands as a key early comic-book expansion of the Elm Street mythos, offering a distinct, pre-licensed-era take on the character that remains a cult touchstone for horror fans.
