Missoula, MT (07/29/2026) – Vault Comics’s acclaimed Vampire: The Masquerade comic series will be returning to print in an all new compact edition, available on August 31, 2026 in comic shops everywhere, and September 1, 2026 in bookstores everywhere. The comics are based on the bestselling tabletop role-playing game published by White Wolf.
The complete compact edition includes all ten issues of Vampire: The Masquerade—Winter’s Teeth together with all three issues of World of Darkness: Crimson Thaw. Vampire: The Masquerade—Winter’s Teeth was written by Tim Seeley and drawn by Dev Pramalnik, with back-up stories written by Tini and Blake Howard and drawn by Nathan Gooden. World of Darkness: Crimson Thaw was written by Tim Seeley, Jim Zub, and Danny Lore and drawn by Julius Ohta.
“The sheer creative force behind our Vampire: The Masquerade series is dazzling,” said Vault CCO and Editor-in-Chief, Adrian Wassel. “Tim Seeley (Eisner-nominated; Nightwing) captures the humanity at the center of the World of Darkness with Cecily and Ali, and it’s balanced perfectly against Tini and Blake Howard’s (Catwoman) ensemble ‘Anarch Tales’ that invite readers into a vast sandbox with ease. When Jim Zub (Conan the Barbarian) and Danny Lore (Transformers) joined to capture the rage of the Garou, it felt like we’d assembled the greatest writer’s room in history. Meanwhile, Devmalya Pramanik (Moon Knight) and Nathan Gooden (Barbaric) create a new landscape in the shadows of the Twin Cities that feels dangerously alive in a way that cannot be described, only appreciated. Having Julius Ohta (Punisher), Corin Howell (Lilith), and Stephen Molnar follow in their footsteps was the blood red cherry on top.”
Later this year, Vault and White Wolf will announce more details of an all new Vampire: The Masquerade comic series coming from Vault in 2027.
“I started playing Vampire: The Masquerade in middle-school, and have loved this story world ever since,” said Vault’s CEO, Damian Wassel. “It’s an honor to get to play in our little corner of the universe. Winter’s Teeth brought together a team of all-star creators, who delivered a fun, horrifying, brilliant clever piece of Vampire: The Masquerade lore. Fans have been clamoring for it to come back to print, and we think they are going to love this affordable compact edition. We can’t wait to dig into more storytelling in this world. And we look forward to sharing plans for some much more elaborate editions soon too.”
