About the series
In 2026, Image Comics launched a four-issue miniseries reimagining the Phantom of the Opera, written by Tyler Boss and James Tynion IV with art by Martin Simmonds. This take on Erik’s haunting tale strips away the romance to focus on the raw, tragic horror of the creature beneath the opera house. It matters as a fresh, moody entry in the Universal Monsters franchise, pairing Tynion’s modern horror sensibilities with Simmonds’s gothic, atmospheric visuals to reclaim the Phantom as a figure of dread rather than melodrama.
