HELLMONIC STREETZ: Urban Horror with Soul, Fire, and Faith

From the mind of Jeff Carroll, the creator of The Black Nun, comes Hellmonic Streetz—a double-feature comic blending divine vengeance, street horror, and mythic madness.

Born from quarantine, Hellmonic Streetz transforms what was meant to be the movie sequel to The Black Nun into a bold, illustrated vision. When Krampus is accidentally unleashed from Hell, only The Black Nun, a divine protector of the streets, can stand between Miami and demonic destruction. Her light collides with his chaos in an epic, supernatural showdown for the soul of the city.

But that’s just half the nightmare.
Also included is Slushie Man—a chilling urban legend of a Black Snowman come to life. When a curse gone wrong transfers dark energy into the city’s slush, a monstrous snow-being rises, devouring souls and freezing the streets in terror. Blending witchcraft, street life, and spiritual vengeance, Slushie Man turns cold fear into blazing horror.

Hip Hop Comix & Flix: The New Direction of Genre Comics

Hip Hop Comix & Flix has adopted a bold new direction by embracing Genre Comics. The company has already published horror, Cyberfunk, and humor titles, and now plans to expand into more targeted genres exploring space, monsters, demons, and emotions such as paranoia.

Genre comics have an amazing history. In fact, comic books originally began as genre-based storytelling—long before superheroes dominated the shelves. Genre comics focus more on narrative and atmosphere than flashy action.

This new wave is the brainchild of Jeff Carroll, an award-winning horror filmmaker with six streaming horror films, over fifteen published science fiction books, and stories featured in vampire and horror anthologies.

Classic genre comics like Tales from the Crypt, Cracked, and Mad Magazine were immensely popular from the 1930s through the 1990s. Magazines such as Eerie and Creepy emerged to bypass the Comics Code Authority while delivering short, gripping stories. In the U.K., 2000 AD continued the tradition, while Heavy Metal explored dark fantasy and science fiction.

Now, modern publishers like Oni Press are reviving the legacy of EC Comics—seventy years later—with a fresh variety of genre-driven stories.

 

Spoof Streetz is set to bring the laughs

 

From the inventive mind of Jeff Carroll comes Spoof Streetz, a bold, laugh-out-loud comic series that flips pop culture on its head. With a sharp Black and people-of-color lens, this collection dives into everything from viral internet madness to blockbuster absurdities. Inspired by Mad Magazine, Wild ’N Out, Key & Peele, and Chappelle’s Show, Spoof Streetz delivers edgy satire and social commentary with unapologetic humor. Inside, you’ll meet a Black superhero grappling with America’s racial reality, Wild’N Out cast members fighting off a zombie outbreak, a flat-earther athlete taken to the planet’s edge, and a fierce, no-nonsense matriarch and her friends trying to cook a soul food feast gone hilariously wrong. Aimed at teens and young adults, this is comedy with a conscience—raw, real, and ridiculously fun.  CHECK OUT THE KICKSTARTER Spook Streetz link

“I wanted to bring Hip Hop styled comedy to the world of comic books. I enjoyed EC comics like MAD magazine, Tales from the Crypt, Weird Science and there other genre comics. After a funny story called The Ass Doctor in CyberFunk Streetz got strong reactions, I knew I had something.  People told me how funny it was and I thought wow I can do a comic with funny stories. Spoof Streetz is my book of funny stories, but I have a comic of space stories and anthology of crime stories in the works. I’ve done two Horror Streetz comics and I have another Horror Streetz as well,” said Jeff Carroll of his work. He continued “I believe laughter is the most potent antidote to stress and anxiety. Studies show that laughter lowers cortisol, boosts endorphins, and strengthens the immune system. With stress ranked among the top 5 causes of death in America—responsible for over 60% of illnesses—humor isn’t just uplifting; it's life-saving. That’s why I’ve fully embraced my sense of humor and comedy—not as entertainment, but as a force for healing.”

 

Genre comics exploded in popularity during the 1940s and 1950s, covering horror, crime, sci-fi, and satire. EC Comics led the charge with bold, adult-themed storytelling that challenged social norms. Faced with censorship, many publishers folded or shifted formats—like Mad, which became a magazine to evade the Comics Code. These comics paved the way for socially aware storytelling and inspired generations of creators in film, television, and literature.

 

EC Comics, revived by William Gaines, became famous in the 1950s for bold horror, crime, and sci-fi stories. In 1952, Gaines and Harvey Kurtzman launched Mad, a satirical comic that took off with its Superman parody. To avoid censorship, Mad became a magazine in 1955, securing creative freedom. It went on to influence generations of comedians and writers, becoming one of America’s most iconic humor publications.       

 

Hip Hop Comix N Flix is a publishing and film Production Company that was opened 2006. The goal is to produce works of literature and film which inspire and provoke progressive thought while maximizing entertainment and enjoyment.

History

The Glyph Comics Awards recognizes the best in comics made by, for, and about people of color from the preceding calendar year.

The awards are named for the blog Glyphs: The Language of the Black Comics Community at Pop Culture Shock, started in 2005 by comics journalist Rich Watson as a means to provide news and commentary of comics with black themes, as well as tangential topics in the fields of black science-fiction/fantasy and animation.
