Darkstalkers (comics)
From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Darkstalkers is a comic book series created by UDON Comics. It is based on the Darkstalkers video game franchise by Capcom.[1]
Darkstalkers was originally published through Devil's Due Publishing, consisting of six issues in 2004-2005 that were later collected in a TPB collection that omitted the backup stories presented at the end of each issue, and included a special Morrigan background story previously only seen in Capcom Summer Special (2004) comic book. In 2010, UDON revived the series in a three-issue miniseries entitled Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors.[2][3] A compilation of both UDON series, Darkstalkers: The Ultimate Edition, was released in 2012.[4]
An eight-issue comic book crossover with UDON's Street Fighter comic book series titled Street Fighter vs. Darkstalkers was published in nine monthly issues (including #0) in 2017–2018.[5]
Further editions of both series sharing a continuity were explored in one-shots Street Fighter: Akuma vs. Hell (July 2019),[6] and Street Fighter: Menat (March 2019)[7] which included Darkstalkers elements.
The Darkstalkers comics have since continued in a series of one-shots with Darkstalkers: Morrigan (released March 2022),[8] Darkstalkers: Felicia (April 2023),[9] Darkstalkers: Hsien-Ko (October 2023),[10] and Darkstalkers: Jedah (April 2024).[11]
