More Than Human by Doug Moench5/27/2023 But then in 1954 the Comics Code came in – an industry acquiescing to bland out its sharp edges for its own survival. Superheroes were yesterday’s news now was the time to bring in the weird stuff. Werewolf by Night was the title of one of the hundreds of Atlas-era anthology tales which flooded the shelves in the early 1950s. A thing for grown-ups now – something to be thought-pieced, listacled, and “Easter Eggs You Have Missed!” like its apoethised comic siblings before. The hideous four colour beast is made divine by the blessings of the screen. With that murmured chant on my digital lips, Werewolf by Night is a Marvel comics character was an ongoing series and occasional miniseries and now has slunk into the moonlight as a thing enrobed in the Emm Cee You. We lace our texts with the right glyph combination to draw in attention, money, power. Time to invoke the hidden knowledge and attempt to appease the unknowable soulless beings who sit above us.
