Hook Jaw

A five-issue series from Titan Comics, Hook Jaw (2016–2017) is a bloody, action-horror revival of the classic 1970s British antihero—a giant, man-eating great white shark. Written by Si Spurrier with art by Conor Boyle, the series drops the shark into a modern-day setting of offshore oil rigs, corporate greed, and environmental decay, turning the predator into a force of nature against human corruption. It matters as a gritty, modern update that blends exploitation-thriller energy with sharp ecological commentary, capturing the spirit of the original while carving its own brutal path.
