Dark Horse Comics is heading to the Upside Down with their latest project, as the company announced they’ve acquired the license for the hit Netflix TV series Stranger Things.
The first miniseries is set to launch in September, according to Entertainment Weekly, and will focus on Will Byers and his time in the other dimensional Upside Down, set during the first season of the show. The miniseries is written by Jody Houser, illustrated by Stefano Martino, inked by Keith Champagne, colored by Lauren Affe and lettered by Nate Piekos.
Houser celebrated the news on Twitter:

I've been sitting on the @Stranger_Things comic news for SIX MONTHS. Let it never be said I can't keep a secret.
And now several friends finally know why I was asking random questions about Dungeons & Dragons Expert Set a while back. 😁😁😁
