Two Exorcist Comics Offer Unofficial Takes on the Horror Classic
IDW Dark has published two horror comic miniseries, The Exorcism at 1600 Penn and The Exorcism at Buckingham Palace.
Both were written by Hannah Rose May and are unofficial stories connected to the world of The Exorcist.
In the first, Mara, the US president’s daughter, faces pressure at school and online as her mother serves as the first woman president.
In the second, Prince Theo becomes next in line after two royals disappear at sea, while his family is described as cursed.
Theo also has a drinking problem and struggles with sudden pressure.
The stories link personal struggles to supernatural possession, giving readers reasons to care about the people at risk.
