Cryptozoic Man was a four-issue comic book limited series by Bryan Johnson and Walt Flanagan.[1] Flanagan described the series as the "creepiest cosmic spookshow ever witnessed!"[2]
The concept debuted on the AMC reality series Comic Book Men in which Johnson and Flanagan star. The other co-stars of Comic Book Men are also involved in the development of Cryptozoic Man.
Alan Ostman, a middle-aged husband/father, sees his life quickly unravel when his daughter goes missing on a camping trip in the Pacific Northwest...Bigfoot country. After Gray aliens abduct him from a roadside bar, he learns that the fate of the world is dependent on trapping the world's most legendary cryptids.[3]
The comic centers on a character who is an amalgamation of a human being and legendary creatures like Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster and the Jersey Devil.
