*The Lycan* is inspired by a story co-created by Thomas Jane and screenwriter David James Kelly, known for his work on *Logan*. The series features a script by the acclaimed Mike Carey, who has worked on *Lucifer* and *The Unwritten*. The stunning artwork is brought to life by artist Diego Yapur, with vibrant coloring by D.C. Alonso, and meticulous lettering by AndWorld Design. The iconic Tim Bradstreet, known for his work on *Punisher MAX* and *Hellblazer*, will grace the series with its covers.
Here's the official synopsis from Comixology for *The Lycan #1*:
*Year of Our Lord 1777: A hardened band of international big game hunters, returning from Africa, find themselves shipwrecked off a small British island.*
*In exchange for new supplies and the repair of their ship, The Calydonian, Lord Ludgate enlists the men for a task they are uniquely suited for: to hunt down and eradicate the Berserking Beasts that have been preying on his subjects, including a group of young Benedictine Nuns.*
*The Lycan #1* is slated for a digital release on Tuesday, February 18, and will be exclusively available on the Comixology Originals platform. Following the series' completion, Ablaze Comics will offer a print collection for fans to enjoy.
