“The Thing: The Northman Nightmare” tells the origin story which is set in a frigid Greenland and introduces us to a group of Norsemen who find themselves caught in a game of survival when they discover a terrifying creature.<\/p>\n

The shape-shifting monster has the ability to turn itself into a perfect replica of any living being. It can look just like you or me, but inside, it remains inhuman. And it hides somewhere in a desolate village with few human survivors, among them a strange group of women.<\/p>\n

Steve Niles (“30 Days of Night”) wrote the comic while Patric Reynolds (“Serenity”) did the art and Dave Stewart (“Hellboy”) the colors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
