Michael Giacchino, who directed Marvel Studios' Special Presentation Werewolf by Night, collaborates with artist David Messina on Werewolf by Night: Blood Moon Rise, set to release in July.

The press release follows:

Media Release -- Announced earlier today at Entertainment Weekly, Michael Giacchino, director of Marvel Studios' Special Presentation Werewolf by Night, will write WEREWOLF BY NIGHT: BLOOD MOON RISE, a new Marvel comic book hitting stands in July. The Academy Award-winning composer made his directorial debut in the acclaimed Marvel Cinematic Universe special. Now, he teams up with artist David Messina (Ultimate Spider-Man) to deliver another tale of terror starring Jack Russell—this time set in the Marvel Comics universe!



WEREWOLF BY NIGHT: BLOOD MOON RISE spotlights what makes Werewolf By Night such a captivating Marvel icon, with over fifty years of comics history – and a hundred times as many bodies in his wake! In addition to Giacchino's story that pits the tortured hero against Dracula, the one-shot will also have a backup story by Jason Loo, writer of the current Werewolf By Night: Red Band comic series, celebrating the character's history and future along with various bonus material.

"It could be a lost story from the original run, in a way," Giacchino told EW. "There's a fun twist to it that I think is going to be really interesting for people who are into Jack Russell and that lore."
