Salem's Back On the Prowl

It's been a few years since we last checked in on Sabrina's cat familiar, Salem. When we last left him in 2022's Chilling Adventures of Salem, he was prowling the streets and stumbled upon a number of missing pet posters. As it turned out, an evil warlock was stealing them for his own malicious purposes. You can read the full story for yourself in the Archie Horror Presents... Chilling Adventures collection. 

Well, now Salem's back on his own and Macabre Daily has the scoop on the upcoming one-shotThe Nine Lives of Salem.

This upcoming one-shot, which reunites the creative team of writer Cullen Bunn, artists Dan Schoening and Ben Galvan, colorist Matt Herms, and letterer Jack Morelli, sees Salem tackling some old accomplices from his warlock days who he once created and then banished to his servitude. Now, they’re back and have more than a bone to pick with the titular black cat.
