This special story originally appeared in a 2016 Attack on Titan anthology, which brought together several well-known comic book creators to expand on Hajime Isayama’s world. Artists and writers like Evan Dorkin, Sam Humphries, Gail Simone, and others didn’t just fill in gaps in the existing story; they created entirely new versions of the Attack on Titan universe. This particular short story was a collaboration between Scott Snyder and Ray Fawkes, with art by Rafael Albuquerque – the three had previously worked together on the horror comic American Vampire. Here, Snyder returns to his horror background, but this time within the setting of Attack on Titan.
