Where it came from
Werewolf by Night #39 was published by Marvel Comics in 1976 as the conclusion to the original Werewolf by Night series. The title debuted in 1972 during a period when the Comics Code Authority relaxed its restrictions on supernatural characters, allowing Marvel to lean into horror-themed storytelling. By the time this final issue arrived, the series had become a notable example of the company's experimental era, blending traditional superhero tropes with gothic horror elements that had gained significant traction in the early 1970s.
The issue features cover art by Gil Kane and interior work that reflects the creative transition of the era. The narrative followed Jack Russell, a character cursed with lycanthropy, as he struggled to balance his humanity with his nocturnal transformations. While the series was cancelled shortly after this issue, it remains a point of interest for collectors of Bronze Age horror comics for its role in establishing the darker, more atmospheric corner of the Marvel Universe.
