Dark Horse Comics has announced the re-release of Cullen Bunn, Shawn Lee and Matt Kindt’s strange horror tale The Tooth for February 2025 – with a new 184-page paperback edition featuring an original cover by Kindt. It will hit bookstores February 4 and comic shops February 5, retailing for $24.99.
The Tooth was originally published as a hardcover in 2011 by Oni Press. It saw writers Cullen Bunn and Shawn Lee team up with writer/artist Matt Kindt to tell an original tale about a monstrous hero in the vein of classic characters like Swamp Thing, The Hulk, and Man-Thing.
The Dark Horse press release:
“Get ready to experience horrifying heroes, as Dark Horse Books invites fans of superhero action adventure to sink their teeth into a new edition of an original story, The Tooth. Writers Cullen Bunn (Monsters Are My Business), Shawn Lee, and writer/artist Matt Kindt join forces to present this new edition of The Tooth featuring the long out-of-print cult classic comic book in a newly designed paperback edition featuring a brand-new cover by Kindt.
“Face front, horror hounds! The greatest of ghoulish gladiators gouges a gruesome gangway through your guts in the Grand Guignol tradition! Creepy Cullen Bunn, Sinister Shawn Lee, and Murderous Matt Kindt bring you the most spectacular of horrifying heroes—The Tooth!
“Be the first kid on your block to follow the offbeat adventures of the Incredible Incisor, the Monstrous Molar, the Courageous Carnassial, as he squares off against vicious demons, hell-bent sorcerers, vengeful spirits, and undead dragons!”
Speaking about the return of The Tooth to print, co-creator Cullen Bunn said:
“The Tooth is one of my favorite and most strange stories. Shawn, Matt, and I really told a wild horror/adventure story with this one! Thinking back on the creation of the story, meeting with Matt and Shawn many times to discuss and develop this tale of terror and muscle-bound tooth monsters, I can say with no hyperbole that it was some of the most fun I ever had working on a comic. It’s a trip into the manic monster mayhem comics that helped to make me who I am as a writer. I’m thrilled that new readers will have a chance to discover the story!”
