The Thing: The Northman Nightmare

The Thing: The Northman Nightmare is an exclusive digital comic-book published by Dark Horse Comics in September 2011 as part of a promotional tie-in with The Thing (2011). Taking place hundreds of years before the events of the prequel film, the comic tells the origin story of pioneering Norsemen who discover a shape-shifting creature that is hiding in a desolate village with few human survivors.
