The Fur Flies Again! Curse of the Where Wolf Brings Bigger Laughs, Bigger Monsters, and One Angry Werewolf This August 🐺💥

THE FUR FLIES AGAIN! CURSE OF THE WHERE WOLF HOWLS BACK THIS AUGUST WITH BIGGER LAUGHS, BIGGER MONSTERS, AND ONE VERY TICKED-OFF WEREWOLF

Being a werewolf was never on Larry Chaney’s vision board. No inspirational sticky note. No five-year plan. No “new year, new me” nonsense. My man wanted to be a hero, and instead life handed him claws, chaos, and a supernatural appetite problem. Wepaaaa… talk about a career pivot.

Following the breakout success of Where Wolf, writer Robert Saucedo, artist and colorist Debora Lancianese, and Harvey Award-winning letterer Jack Morelli reunite for Curse of the Where Wolf, an all-new horror-comedy graphic novel that drags Larry Chaney deeper into a world of monsters, madness, sharp laughs, and surprisingly big heart.

Originally launched as a black-and-white webcomic through Fangoria before being collected by Encyclopocalypse Publications in 2023, Where Wolf built its pack by mixing horror, comedy, and Texas-sized absurdity into one wild, furry ride. Now, with Curse of the Where Wolf, the creative team turns the volume up, the fangs out, and the weirdness all the way to “somebody call animal control, but make it supernatural.”

Reporter Larry Chaney wanted purpose. What he got was lycanthropy, danger, and the kind of problems you cannot solve with a strong cup of coffee and a decent Wi-Fi signal. Caught between terrifying new powers and the urge to eat everything that looks remotely edible, Larry is back in the worst possible way… which, for readers, means the best possible time.

Rob Saucedo spoke about expanding the world he created while embracing everything he loves about the medium:

“As a lifelong fan of werewolves, mystery novels, and the weirdness that is Texas, the first Where Wolf comic book was born from my desire to tell the ultimate werewolf story for fans of the werewolf genre. I worked with great partners to get it out into the world, including Fangoria and Encyclopocalypse, and producers Charles Horak and James Fino.

With Where Wolf, I wanted to tell a whodunit set in a furry convention, so the story was pretty contained within a very specific setting and genre. With Curse of the Where Wolf, I wanted to celebrate everything I love about the possibility of comic books. Curse of the Where Wolf is a funny book, in every sense of the phrase, but it’s also an earnest look at a person’s struggle to become a better version of themselves, especially when the alternative is to become a literal monster.

Fans of the first book are going to find the same mix of horror and comedy, but I think they’re going to be even more surprised by the book’s heart and humanity. Both books are collaborations with incredibly talented partners. Debora Lancianese is a master of comedy, crafting characters that come to life with humanity and humor. Jack Morelli is an industry legend. To say that I’ve worked with a man who’s worked with both Stan Lee and Archie Andrews blows my mind.”

Blending the irreverent energy of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, the supernatural chaos of Dungeon Crawler Carl, and the horror-comedy sensibilities of I Hate This Place, Curse of the Where Wolf delivers laugh-out-loud comedy, genuine emotion, and monstrous mayhem. Fans of What We Do in the Shadows and King of the Hill will feel right at home in Saucedo’s distinctly Texan world of cryptids, curses, and lovable losers.

Curse of the Where Wolf goes on sale August 7, 2026. You can preorder your copy at https://encyclopocalypse.com/products/where-wolf-copy.
