Viking Moon #1 Sells Out and Howls Its Way Back to Print

Viking Moon #1 Sells Out and Howls Its Way Back to Print

Fans are howling for more Viking Moon! Image Comics just revealed that Viking Moon #1—the new werewolf-meets-Viking saga from writer Joe Pruett and artist Marcelo Frusin—has completely sold out at the distributor level. The demand was so wild that the publisher has already rushed a second printing back to press this week. If you missed it the first time, don’t worry—another chance to grab it is coming soon.

Set in the year 1003, Viking Moon follows a group of Norse explorers who make landfall in the mysterious new world that would later become Newfoundland. After tragedy strikes, they return twenty years later to try again—only to discover that they’re not alone. The land is teeming with creatures straight out of nightmares: savage, supernatural predators that feed beneath the light of the full moon. It’s a mix of gritty historical adventure, Norse legend, and bone-crunching horror that hits the perfect balance of epic and terrifying.

This fast sell-out shouldn’t surprise anyone familiar with the creative team. Writer Joe Pruett is an Eisner Award winner, and artist Marcelo Frusin has made his mark on acclaimed titles like Hellblazer and Kick-Ass. Their combined talents bring a dark, cinematic intensity to this series that feels both mythic and brutally grounded. It’s no wonder readers have been clamoring for more—this debut issue clearly struck a chord.

If you want to get your hands on a copy, keep an eye out for the second printing of Viking Moon #1 (Lunar Code 0825IM8469), which will hit comic shops on November 5. Digital readers can also find the series on platforms like Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play. With the first print run already gone, it’s probably a good idea to pre-order this one before it disappears again.

Viking Moon feels like the perfect blend of history and horror—something primal and powerful that calls to anyone who loves dark myth and raw adventure. So maybe grab a cup of something warm, head outside under the night sky, and get ready for a bloody, beautiful story of survival and the beasts that lurk within us all.
