[September 11, 2025] – Monster Forge is proud to announce the terrifying return of the cult horror hit GUTWRENCHER, now available exclusively on GlobalComix!

Created by veteran storytellers Shannon Eric Denton (Graveslinger), the late Keith Giffen (Justice League), and Steve Niles (30 Days of Night), with visceral, haunting art by Anthony Hightower, GUTWRENCHER is a slasher tale with a soul—and a bloody edge sharp enough to carve its place in horror history.


A CURSE AWAKENS…

Synopsis:

In the deep woods of rural New England, a hiker is infected with an ancient curse just days before his ten-year high school reunion. If his soul is pure, he may be able to resist the evil clawing its way through his body. If not… nothing will be able to stop him.


Originally released to critical acclaim, GUTWRENCHER twists classic horror tropes into something fresh, brutal, and unforgettable. With this rerelease on GlobalComix, readers old and new can experience the raw terror and eerie atmosphere that made it a standout of the genre.


CRITICS RAVE ABOUT GUTWRENCHER

…it’s like an intelligent version of the teen horror genre that developed in the 1980s. If you like Freddy, Jason and their peers, you’ll want to make sure you check this one out.

SCOOP 


Gutwrencher is as capable as [Hack/Slash, Freddy Vs. Jason Vs. Ash]. Something

about having the slasher’s face blacked out gives the book a spookier edge... The art really makes it stand out... a little more subtle, giving more meaning to facial

expressions. This comic takes a fairly typical idea and turns it into something special...

Newsarama


With GUTWRENCHER, I think they’ve finally found a worthy entry. It’s a keeper.

Comics Waiting Room


For horror fans looking for a fresh take on the slasher genre—infused with classic

scares, modern style, and masterful storytelling—GUTWRENCHER is a must-read.
