Dark Horse Manga’s ‘Cthulhu Cat’ Contains The Cutest Eldritch Horror On This Plane
by Brendan M. Allen
Dark Horse Manga invites cat lovers across the cosmos to experience a new take on the eldritch horrors of Lovecraftian lore with the upcoming OGN Cthulhu Cat. The one-shot, full-color gag manga from Pandania is a charming tribute both to Lovecraft’s stories and love of cats. This new English edition is translated by Zack Davisson and lettered by Steve Dutro.
An abandoned supernatural cat is found by an ordinary Japanese high school student. She maybe shouldn’t have meddled with kitties beyond comprehension. The thing had tentacles where its whiskers should have been. It’s too late now, though. The ‘cat’ starts to invade his house, as furry and feline versions of Hastur, Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep, and other adorable Lovecraftian horrors blast his mind, whisper impossible secrets, and generally get underfoot!
Cthulhu Cat arrives will be available for $14.99 on bookstore shelves September 17, 2024 and comic shops September 18, 2024. It is currently available for pre-order at both.
