Tales of Supernatural Law #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection brings together stories from the quirky comic series where supernatural attorneys Alanna Wolff and Jeff Byrd handle legal cases involving classic monsters like Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, and Igor, alongside their human associate Mavis Munro. Published by Exhibit A Press in 2005, it blends courtroom drama with horror-comedy in a unique take on the legal system for the undead and otherworldly beings.
"Preliminaries" in Tales of Supernatural Law #1 (2005) kicks off with a delightfully chaotic twist on classic horror tropes, as a scheme to profit from Dracula, the Wolfman, and Frankenstein’s Monster spirals into a full-blown invasion of variant versions of each iconic creature. Written and illustrated by Batton Lash, with inks by Melissa Uran and Derek Ozawa and lettering by Jackie Estrada, the issue blends eerie atmosphere with sharp humor, all wrapped in a cover by Batton Lash that captures the story’s gothic flair.
In "A Host of Horrors," the legendary horror host The Bier-Meister faces off against a crusading parents’ group in a satirical courtroom battle, with Wolff & Byrd defending his right to broadcast a new all-horror TV network. As the case unfolds, the courtroom becomes a surreal stage where real and fictional fears collide, with figures like Josette LaFargue, Judge Dewey, and the eccentric Dr. Forrest Bertrum adding layers of absurdity and suspense.
When a shady copyright claim lands a trio of classic monsters in a legal tangle, the courtroom becomes a battleground for supernatural rights—and a very confused Al Lampini finds himself defending a creature known only as Sodd, the Thing Called It! Amid a wave of derivative Draculas, Frankenstein Monsters, and a surprisingly numerous army of werewolves, even Blacula starts questioning his own legacy.
