First look at R.L. Stine horror graphic novel ‘Just Beyond: Welcome to Beast Island’

Best-selling American scare master and author R.L Stine has just taken the wraps off his latest spooky creation. This time, he departs from trademark short stories to create Just Beyond, a horror graphic novel series.

For the latest story titled Welcome to Beast Island, Stine collaborated with BOOM! Studios to come up with another masterful creation.

This new graphic novel is written by Stine, featuring the artwork of Kelly and Nichole Matthews, letters by Mike Fiorentino, and a cover art done by Julian Totino Tedesco.

Here’s the synopsis:

Trips to exotic islands can be more exhausting than relaxing sometimes, and on the island of Mala Suerte, they’re a real beast! Karla and her little brother Benny accompany their Uncle Bill on a scientific expedition to study unidentified species on the remote island, but after a little ‘bad luck,’ they soon discover something terrifying and deadly living in the river swamp. With nowhere to run, will Karla, Benny, and Uncle Bill survive the unimaginable and harrowing horrors of the place aptly nicknamed BEAST ISLAND?

Just Beyond: Welcome to Beast Island will be available through digital outlets like Comixology.com beginning Oct. 21. Afterwards, the graphic novel will arrive at bookstores by Oct. 27.
