Madame Tarantula

Mike Hoffman’s Madame Tarantula launched in 2002 as a single-issue comic from Amryl Entertainment, introducing a self-contained story written and fully illustrated by Hoffman himself. The series spotlights a mysterious, spider-themed heroine navigating her own shadowy corner of the publisher’s universe, blending Hoffman’s distinctive art and narrative voice into a compact, standalone debut. Though brief, this issue marks the character’s starting point in the Amryl lineup, offering a focused glimpse into her world without overstaying its welcome.
