IDW Publishing announced its newest horror  anthology, THE CLAWS COME OUT from acclaimed indie cartoonist Pat Lewis.

To be released in exquisite hardcover format, THE CLAWS COME OUT is a  diverse collection of comical monster stories: an apathetic scientist  works late defrosting the Abominable Snowman; a naïve blood donor  dates a rageaholic vampire; a two-bit fortuneteller inadvertently  sparks a zombie epidemic. Martians, werewolves, serial killers and B-movie monsters square off against a variety of tough women in this  slam-bang collection. And it’s all played for laughs.

Creator Pat Lewis has won multiple awards for his past work,  including:  2004 Ignatz Award Nominee (Outstanding Minicomic,  “Thankless Job”), 2004 Howard E. Day Prize Nominee (“Obsessive  Crush”), 2006 Howard E. Day Prize Nominee (“One Horse Town”), and the  2006 Howard E. Day Prize Nominee (“Abominable”).

“This is a great time to be making comics,” Lewis said.  “I couldn’t  be happier that IDW chose to publish my work.”

THE CLAWS COME OUT will be released in November 2007 in a deluxe  hardcover format and will contain 152 black and white pages. It will  retail for $19.99.
