Horror fans who enjoy their scares with a healthy dose of mystery, bloodshed, and twisted storytelling may want to keep an eye on an upcoming graphic novel from Comixology Originals. THE 99 LEGS, a new giallo-inspired horror story from writer W. Michael Conrad (Nightwing) and artist Noah Bailey (Diabolical, Station Grand), is set to arrive digitally on November 17, 2026.
The creative team previously collaborated on Tremor Dose and Double Walker, and they’re reuniting for what is being described as their most disturbing collaboration yet. Drawing inspiration from the Italian giallo film genre, THE 99 LEGS promises leather-clad killers, gruesome murders, twisting suspense, and a nightmarish mystery that should appeal to fans of macabre storytelling.
WHAT’S IT ABOUT?
The story follows a down-on-his-luck crime writer who discovers a series of gruesome murders taking place in his area. The disturbing part? The killings appear to follow the events described in his newest unpublished manuscript. Fearing that the book could implicate him in the crimes, he contacts his agent in an attempt to prevent its publication and sets out to stop the murders before they happen.
What follows is a blood-soaked descent into madness as the mystery surrounding the killer’s identity begins to unfold.

One of the things we appreciate about Comixology Originals is its continued commitment to bringing independent creators and original storytelling to readers. Over the years, the digital comics platform has helped introduce audiences to projects that might otherwise have struggled to find the same reach, giving creators an opportunity to tell stories outside the traditional comic book publishing landscape. Projects like THE 99 LEGS are another reason we’re always interested in seeing what the platform has coming next.
THE 99 LEGS will be available exclusively through Amazon’s Comixology Originals digital content line beginning November 17. Readers with Kindle Unlimited or Comixology Unlimited memberships can access the title at no additional cost, while individual purchases will also be available through Amazon.
For those who prefer their comics in physical form, Mad Cave Studios is scheduled to release the graphic novel in print in Summer 2027.
