In this issue, writer Leon Hendrix III (Two Sentence Horror Stories, Mayor of Kingstown) teams up with artist Eric Zawadzki (Heart Attack, House of El) to present a standalone horror story about an extracurricular you’d die to have on your high school transcript. Afterschool #4’s creative team is rounded out by colorist Fabiana Mascolo (Firefly), letterer Pat Brosseau (Birthright, Manifest Destiny), and cover artist Veronica Fish (Archie, Sabrina the Teenage Witch).

Mr. Kelly wanted to shake up the traditions at his private boarding school, so he started a new club. But what happens when a history teacher’s grand experiment in free thinking takes on a life of its own?

The team behind this Afterschool special joins the impressive roster of acclaimed writers and superstar artists from comics, television and beyond working on the miniseries, including Justin Benson & Aaron Moorhead (Marvel Studios’ Moon Knight) and Greg Hinkle (Radio Spaceman); Kate Herron (Marvel Studios’ Loki, Sex Education) & Briony Redman (the BAFTA Rocliffe-winning Pont Brec) alongside Leila Leiz (M.O.M.: Mother of Madness, Horde); and Jill Blotevogel (Scream: The TV Series, Shining Vale) with Lisa Sterle (Witchblood) and Marley Zarcone (Shade, the Changing Girl; Effigy). Each standalone Afterschool special features a unique creative team to give each issue a distinct horrifying feel, with its own relatable characters and truly chilling lessons.
