About the series
Anthony Del Col and Conor McCreery’s Kill Shakespeare, published by IDW from 2010 to 2017, reimagines the Bard’s characters as warring factions in a dark fantasy world. Over its five-issue run, artist Andy Belanger brought a gritty, expressive style to this tale of a reluctant Hamlet, a scheming Lady Macbeth, and a desperate Richard III, all vying for control of a mystical artifact. It’s a clever, action-driven mashup that treats Shakespeare’s canon as a shared universe, offering fans a fresh, violent spin on classic archetypes.
