Christopher Monfette's TexArcanum: Horror, Folklore & Cowboy Magic
On this episode of Talking Strange, host Aaron Sagers chats with writer and producer Christopher Monfette, the creative mind behind TexArcanum, the new supernatural western comic from Dark Horse Comics.
TexArcanum is a genre-bending tale of cowboy arcanist Avery Belle, who finds himself caught in a supernatural land feud teeming with ghosts, demons, gods, and forgotten folklore. Think Yellowstone meets The X-Files, with a splash of Elmore Leonard grit and Stephen King dread.
Monfette shares how his background as an entertainment journalist for IGN and G4 eventually led him to comic writing — including his collaboration with Clive Barker on Hellraiser — and how his TV work on 12 Monkeys, Star Trek: Picard, and the upcoming Vision series from Marvel has shaped his unique narrative voice.
We also dig into the horror-noir Americana of TexArcanum, its influences from folklore, pop culture, and myth, and what it means to write a cowboy steeped in arcane mysteries in a haunted Heartland.
TexArcanum #1 is available now from Dark Horse Comics.
