Today at the Marvel WARZONE panel, a new one-shot book for Secret Wars was announced. Skottie Young will write with Jim Mahfood handling the art for HOWARD THE HUMAN.

The one-shot will focus on Howard, a private investigator, during an average day. What makes Howard a little different is he's the only human living in a city full of animals. There's still plenty of crime and low life elements in the animal kingdom.

HOWARD THE HUMAN #1 is on sale August 2015.

Just take all my monks marvel :D

Surprised it isn't, 'Howard the Inhuman'.

Wow. How did Marvel know how much I wanted this when I didn't even know. They must be wizards.

Skottie Young's writing and not drawing?

Cool concept but passing.

@transformers1024: This is sadly true

Funny idea, whether or not I buy this though will depend on if it takes place with Star Universe characters.

I really want this

@z3ro180:

This is a great idea.

Naaa...

WATTTTT

well I'm def reading this

~MiB

Interesting concept, I probably won't read it though

fun

Is Howard the Human an alternate version of Howard the Duck?

Why does marvel release so many gimmick books, covered in glitter but turns out to be plastic?

All their recent books are money grab ideas and nothing more.

This would only work if he lived in a world populated by ducks. Durr

I'll pick this up.

My first thought exactly. Someone didn't think this through.

On the other hand, Howard (the Duck)'s among all kinds of humans, too.

@donfelipe:

Fair enough.

Yah, makes sense in that there are so many kinds of humans running around here, so the flip side would be a world with so many kinds of animals running around.
