The Creature of Night meets the Warrior of Light!
BLOOD MOON marks the first time that KING CRYPTID (New England's Cursed Immortal Supernatural Man-Monster) meets KYRON MORVEL (Leader of the Iron Wolves and one of the last bastions of good on the brutal Lands of Mhordrin)!

This in-continuity crossover takes place after BLOOD REALM #18 and KING CRYPTID #9.  While this is a crossover, BLOOD MOON will provide a great introduction for readers that are new to the characters and worlds featured in the story.  If you're already reading BLOOD REALM and/or KING CRYPTID -- the added context will provide even more depth to the story. No matter what, there will be a long-lasting impact on both titles as the result of this crossover -- nothing is being reset, rebooted, or retconned -- and no punches are being pulled!
