Titan Comics Unleashes ‘Kraken’ in September 2025!

Writer & Monster Forge founder Shannon Eric Denton (Spider-Man, League of Legends), and artist David Hartman (Phantasm: Ravager, Transformers Prime) team up for an electrifying new adventure in KRAKEN, a brand-new original graphic novel which publishes in September 2025, from Titan Comics.

Set in alternate 1930s filled with dark magic, ancient horrors, and occult powers, KRAKEN will captivate fans of historical and supernatural thrillers. The graphic novel has been praised by high-profile talents including Rob Zombie (Halloween, The Devil’s Rejects) who calls KRAKEN “an insane ripping yarn”, and acclaimed creator Phil Hester (Green Arrow) who says KRAKEN “packs action, romance, high adventure, horror, and just straight up weirdness into every moment.”.

After disappearing for three years, esteemed adventurer Kraken returns to reality in search of allies to stop an evil sorceress from unleashing a horde of eldritch monsters on the world. Armed with a pistol and supernatural tentacles, the Kraken is loose!


Shannon Eric Denton and David Hartman are trailblazing creators with extensive careers in film, television, and comics. Denton is an award-winning director and writer, with credits spanning Disney, Sony, and Warner Brothers. Hartman, a Spectrum Award-winning artist, has had his work featured across comics, and games, notably credited on Transformers Prime and Phantasm Ravager.

“There’s a long list of pulp heroes I grew up with and as friends like Dave Stevens, Mike Mignola and Kevin Conran introduced their own to the pantheon I’ve wanted to do the same but with my own monstrous twist,” says writer, Shannon Denton. “Artist pals James Groman and Kevin Conran deserve a shout out for their early advice and especially to my stellar Monster Forge cohort David Hartman for bringing Kraken to life! And how about that sweet Mike Mignola cover as well!”

Artist David Hartman expressed his excitement working on the project, “When Shannon showed me the script for Kraken, I was hooked immediately! It’s a wild blend of pulp adventure, cosmic horror, and action-packed characters—everything I love to draw. This is just the beginning of an epic series we’re creating together, and I can’t wait for you to dive into the first book and everything else we have in store!”


KRAKEN comes with two covers to collect from David Hartman, and Mike Mignola (Hellboy) and is on sale September 30, 2025! Pre-order the regular edition now from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books A Million and Forbidden Planet (UK).
