A classic Marvel monster returns with a new creative team—and a new identity. A new Werewolf by Night miniseries finds co-writers Taboo of the Black Eyed Peas and Benjamin Jackendoff, with artist Scot Eaton, introducing a brand-new Werewolf by Night character with ties to Native American folklore.

The new Werewolf by Night will be a young man dealing with a family curse while trying to protect his people. Taboo told Comicbook.com:

“We're going through a Native lens because of my Native American heritage. Although I was born in Los Angeles, recently I've been really connected to the Indian country or to native communities to be able to be a service and help native youth, inspire them, especially when it comes to health and wellness, and arts and music. So we built our partnership knowing that when we create, we create through a native lens.”

UPDATE: A trade paperback with the whole miniseries Werewolf By Night is available here. (Monster Complex uses Amazon affiliate links.)
