BOOM! Studios announced this week “Just Beyond: The Horror At Happy Landings,” a brand new graphic novel in the “Just Beyond” series from R.L. Stine, which debuts this September with “Just Beyond: The Scare School.”
The second title in the series will be released in May of 2020 and will tell readers of the supposedly serene camping grounds of the forest preserve at Happy Landings where things take a decidedly terrifying turn when the Walden family encounters a pair of body-snatching aliens.
Family camping trips are supposed to be fun, but for the Walden family, they’re an absolute nightmare! After a creepy, unidentified bird attacks their mom in the forest, Parker and Annie find themselves face to face with two strange creatures that suddenly enter the kids’ brains and take control of their bodies. Can Parker and Annie break loose of this horrific control and convince their family of what’s happening, or will the creatures take over their lives for good?
“I’m not an outdoors person. When I’m in the woods or out in the country, I think of all the creatures who live there, and I instantly begin to think of horrifying encounters.” said writer R.L. Stine. “This story goes JUST BEYOND my normal imagining: What if you were camping out–and you were invaded by creatures from another planet?”
Those looking to get a glimpse of the new comic ahead of its release will be excited to know that a preview of the graphic novel was announced this morning as part of the 2019 Halloween ComicFest lineup.
“Just Beyond: The Horror At Happy Landings” will be available for sale in May 2020 at local comic book shops, bookstores, or at the BOOM! Studios webstore. Digital copies will be available from content providers including comiXology, iBooks, Google Play, and the BOOM! Studios app.
