Mattel and IDW Publishing Announce New Comic Series “Monster High: World’s Scare” 

Mattel, Inc. in collaboration with IDW Publishing, has announced Monster High: World’s Scare, a five issue comic book limited series, available for pre-order beginning today at local comic shops and online. The miniseries comes out with a double sized first issue in July. 

From writer Jacque Aye and artist Caroline Shuda, this monstrous miniseries is the ideal jumping-on point for fans both new and old! With cover art by Betsy Cola, Monster High: World’s Scare follows Frankie Stein and the Boo Crew as they compete in The World’s Scare, where gifted ghouls showcase their eerie ideas and latest breakthroughs that could change monster-kind forever! Their invention, a tribute to Frankie Stein’s late father, Headmaster Frankenstein, is sure to shock the judges. 

“Monster High is all about embracing what makes us unique, and our collaborators at IDW Publishing really captured that spirit in this new series,” said Ryan Ferguson, Global Head of Publishing at Mattel. “We’re excited for fans to dive into these fresh adventures and discover even more about these iconic characters while celebrating their individuality in ways that only Monster High can!” 

“Just like the 19th century World’s Fairs, Monster High: World’s Scare seeks to explore the unknown and answer science’s biggest questions for the betterment of monsterkind. It’s an emotional ride that answers questions fans have been clawing to know: Was someone really working with Lothar? What is Draculaura doing with Frankenstein’s notebook? Who is CryptCrier?” commented editor Riley Farmer. “We are thrilled to team up with Mattel to bring this vision to life, and with Jacque Aye and Caroline Shuda at the helm, this series is sure to be fangtastic. Perfect for new and old fangs, looking for something to sink their… well, their fangs into!”
