VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
(W) Peter Milligan (A) Ronilson Friere (CA) John McCrea For 2000 years the Sect of Anubis have prolonged their life spans through human sacrifice and the enslavement of an Egyptian High Priestess cursed to walk the afterlife for all eternity. On one night every 30 years the Sect must offer up a human vessel to house the spirit of Nebetah so that they can kill her and drink her blood, thus granting them immortality. But this year they have chosen the wrong vessel and she's not going willingly… Date Available: 11/09/2016
BONUS REVIEW by "Doc" Schaefer
 Cudos to Titan Comics for joining forces with Hammer Comics to bring one of the classic monsters back to the comic page. The Mummy has always taken a sad fourth place to the Big 3. Few companies have tried to take on the character but never with much success (and no I am not including the adaptations of those terrible Brendan Fraser movies) as compared to Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, and the Werewolf (or do you say Wolfman). Peter Milligan's story is well done and Ronilson Freire's art fits well for the subject matter. Hopefully, this will spawn some new monster titles under this joint banner. Plus the look back at Hammer Films' Mummy movies was informative. I give it 8 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
