Supernatural #9 Review & Preview: Dynamite’s Winchester Horror Hits a Dark New Case
Supernatural #9 arrives from Dynamite Entertainment on July 29, 2026, bringing the Winchester brothers into another dangerous mystery packed with family tension, supernatural horror, and a threat they may not be ready to handle.
Written by Greg Pak with art by Eder Messias, this 32-page Teen-rated issue continues Dynamite’s Supernatural comic book run with a story that mixes flashbacks, monster-hunting, resurrection horror, and the emotional bond that has always driven the Winchester brothers forward.
The official setup is simple and effective: the Winchesters have tried to follow in their father’s footsteps, fighting evil of all kinds. They have never met a monster they could not handle…until now.
Fans can also check out our earlier Supernatural #9 preview on Comic Book Addicts and the official Dynamite Entertainment product page for ordering details, cover information, and availability.
A Winchester Story Built on Family and Fear
The preview for Supernatural #9 opens in Texarkana, Texas, eighteen years ago, immediately setting the tone with a flashback to a younger and more vulnerable moment in the Winchester family’s history.
A young Sam is watching a scary movie before the scene takes a sharp turn into something far more frightening. Dean quickly realizes something is wrong, and the story moves into a tense motel sequence that reinforces one of the biggest themes of Supernatural: these brothers have been responsible for each other since childhood.
That emotional hook gives the issue more weight than a standard monster hunt. Dean’s protective role is already forming, Sam is already tied to forces he does not understand, and the danger feels personal before the present-day case even begins.
The Present-Day Mystery Gets Stranger
The modern-day portion of the preview shifts into classic Supernatural territory: a graveyard, a strange resurrection, and a mystery involving blood, a comet, and a vision of the future.
Sam and Dean encounter a resurrected man whose return appears connected to a bizarre old story about a drunken priest in Düsseldorf. The explanation raises a disturbing question: why does Sam’s blood matter?
That is where Supernatural #9 starts to separate itself from a simple creature-feature chapter. The issue is not just asking whether the Winchesters can stop a monster. It is asking why the monster is connected to them in the first place.
Review: Why Supernatural #9 Works
Based on the preview pages, Supernatural #9 looks like a strong issue for fans of horror, mystery, and character-driven licensed comics.
Greg Pak understands the core appeal of the Winchester brothers. The dialogue keeps the relationship grounded, while the story uses flashbacks to remind readers that Sam and Dean’s bond is not just background detail. It is the emotional engine of the series.
Eder Messias brings clear storytelling and strong horror atmosphere to the issue. The flashback pages use lonely motel imagery, dusty roads, and isolated Texas settings to create a strong sense of unease. The present-day graveyard scenes shift the tone toward supernatural investigation, giving the issue a clean balance between emotional history and active mystery.
The strongest part of the preview is how the story connects past and present. The flashback makes the danger feel personal. The current case makes the mystery feel larger. Together, they create a strong reason to keep reading.
Why New Fans Should Pick This Up
Supernatural #9 is easy to understand even for readers who are not fully caught up.
The basic hook is clear: two brothers hunt evil, their past still haunts them, and a new monster may be tied to something deeper than a normal case. That makes this issue a solid pickup for fans of supernatural mysteries, road horror, monster hunting, and emotionally driven action comics.
New readers who enjoy comics with cursed history, strange folklore, resurrection horror, and brother-against-the-world storytelling should find plenty to like here.

Comic Book Addicts Take
Supernatural #9 looks like a strong release for both longtime fans and horror comic readers.
The issue uses the Winchester brothers’ past to make the present-day threat feel more dangerous. The resurrection angle gives the story a creepy mystery hook, while the blood connection raises bigger questions about Sam’s role in the case.
This is exactly the kind of Supernatural story that works well in comics: a personal mystery, a strange monster, a dark location, and a sense that the brothers may be walking into something they do not fully understand.

Greg Pak and Eder Messias use the Winchesters’ past to sharpen the emotional stakes, while the present-day case gives readers a strange new threat involving resurrection, blood, and a possible vision of the future.
For longtime fans, this issue offers more of the Winchester brother dynamic that made the franchise work. For new readers, it is a clear and accessible horror-action comic with a strong hook.
