Titan Comics has announced it is teaming up with Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe to publish a brand-new series of comics in 2025; set in the disturbing world of the successful video game franchise, Little Nightmares.
Titan Comics’ Little Nightmares: Descent to Nowhere Issue #1 is written by Lonnie Nadler (The Sickness, Cable) also known as the showrunner and lead writer for The Sounds of Nightmares, the Little Nightmares podcast, with art by Ringo Award nominated artist Dennis Menheere (Etheres, Beyond Real). The issue will take readers in an investigation story navigating between the Nowhere, a nightmarish world filled with frightening inhabitants, and the Counties, an equivalent to our world. The series will include 4 issues and a graphic novel collection.
“It’s been an incredible journey to distill Little Nightmares into the comic medium; Lonnie and Dennis have packed each panel with depth and deeper meaning, for a twisting mystery that’ll leave you haunted and yearning for the next issue.” says Phoebe Hedges, Titan Comics Editor.
The comic series launches in comic stores in 2025, but fans attending New York Comic Con 2024 can stop by Bandai Namco’s booth #2319 for an exclusive early preview.
