Book Synopsis

When things go bump in the night, they bump back.

If you think aliens replaced your teachers or your neighbor might be a vampire, then there’s only one group to call for help: The Nightcrawlers.

The Nightcrawlers take on their first case when a friend from school believes werewolves replaced his parents. They get more than they bargained for when their investigation leads them right in the middle of a confrontation between their caretaker William Jones and a former Nightcrawler out for revenge. This story is about the unlikeliest group of friends coming together to help others…with a spooky twist!

From ABLAZE PUBLISHING comes a new all-ages supernatural adventure comic about a group of supernatural kid detectives, by Eisner Award winning writer Marco Lopez and artist on the rise Rachel Distler. For fans of Goosebumps, The Goonies, Monster Squad, Steven Spielberg films & Don Bluth animated films.

"appreciate the adventurous spirit of the kids and their supportive nature of each other, which is an important lesson for young readers. Rating: 7/10" --THE GRAPHIC LIBRARY


"When a kid at school believes his parents have been replaced by werewolves, the Nightcrawlers promise to look into the claim. I got a kick out of the premise with the mystery/fantasy mash up. I’ll be looking for this one at the bookstore to check it out in person." —The Neverending TBR


An attractive horror comic for the dark and twisted kid in all of us. We need more scares for teens, and The Nightcrawlers provides. —TIM SEELEY (HACK/SLASH, REVIVAL)


An imaginative and well-told story. —MARK WAID (KINGDOM COME, SHAZAM, WORLD’S FINEST: TEEN TITANS)


The Nightcrawlers was a blast! A little bit Goonies, a little bit Coraline, where strange monsters lurk in the dark, side by side with adventure! A story rich with the childhood thrill of exploration, and breaking the rules— backed by adorable, expressive, kinetic art that’s not to be missed! —STEVE ORLANDO (SPIDER-MAN 2099, EXORCISTS NEVER DIE, X-MEN GREEN)
