Dark Horse Comics has announced a spin-off to its fan-favorite cosmic horror graphic novel, Beyond Mortal. The publisher's upcoming comic series Jumpscare will introduce fans to its titular horror superhero this February.

Per Dark Horse, Beyond Mortal's creative team, Cullen Bunn and Danny Luckert, return to helm the upcoming four-issue limited series. Jumpscare is lettered by Jim Campbell. The publisher's Jumpscare description reads, "Strong, fast, and violent horror fan-turned-vigilante Jumpscare can conjure any gore-soaked weapon from any gore-soaked movie she’s watched. With this power, she's become a force for good in Empire City, hacking her way through ne'er-do-wells and monsters alike. Now, her enemies want her dead, and a mobster-turned-monster, Grindhouse, will do whatever he can to bring her down"...
