Recently adapted into the Joe Lynch film Suitable Flesh, H.P. Lovecraft‘s cosmic horror short story The Thing on the Doorstep is being turned into a comic.
The first issue in the five-part miniseries will be published on February 11, 2026 from Top Crow and Image Comics.
Simon Birks (Antarctica), who previously penned a comic version of Lovecraft’s The Shadow Over Innsmouth, writes with artwork by Willi Roberts (Antarctica) and lettering from Rob Jones (Hitomi).
The Thing on the Doorstep draws readers into the shadowed labyrinth of friendship warped by forces not meant for human witness. Daniel Upton and Edward Derby have been bound together since youth — until the day Daniel puts a bullet in his closest companion within the bleak walls of Arkham Sanitarium.
