Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, the webmovie sensation directed by Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon, has come to comic books in Dr. Horrible, one of the one-shots in Dark Horse Comics’ “One-Shot Wonders” program.

Written by Zack Whedon and illustrated by Joelle Jones (Token), the story shows how an impressionable, brilliant, young Dr. Horrible became fascinated with a life of crime. It’s a fun read that is definitely in keeping with the spirit of the video, and we hope it will lead to more adventures.
