Are There Any Sequels To Leech?

Leech is one of those indie comics that lingers in your mind long after you’ve read it—partly because of its eerie, immersive world, and partly because you’re left craving more. Created by David A. Robertson and Scott B. Henderson, it’s a supernatural mystery set in a small town with a protagonist who discovers he’s not entirely human. The first volume leaves so many threads dangling that I spent weeks theorizing about where the story could go next. Sadly, as far as I know, there hasn’t been an official sequel announced yet. But the beauty of indie comics is that they often fly under the radar, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a surprise follow-up. The creators have teased potential expansions, and the fanbase is vocal about wanting more. If you loved the blend of Indigenous lore and horror, Robertson’s other works like 'The Barren Grounds' might scratch that itch while we wait.

In the meantime, diving into similarly themed comics like 'Moonshot: The Indigenous Comics Collection' or 'Survivors of the Hoop' could fill the void. There’s something about the way 'Leech' balances personal identity with supernatural elements that feels unique, though. I’d kill for a sequel that explores the protagonist’s lineage deeper or introduces new threats from the spirit world. Until then, I’ll just re-read the first volume and imagine the possibilities.

Still holding out hope for a 'Leech' follow-up! The first volume’s blend of mystery and Indigenous mythology was so fresh. Until a sequel drops, I’d recommend 'Son of a Trickster' by Eden Robinson—similar themes, but in novel form. Fingers crossed Robertson and Henderson revisit this world someday.

No sequels to 'Leech' yet, but man, I wish. The first volume had this perfect mix of creepy and heartfelt, like if Stephen King decided to collaborate with an Indigenous storyteller. I’ve checked Robertson’s social media every few months hoping for an update—nothing so far. But hey, the indie comic scene moves in mysterious ways. Maybe they’re cooking something up quietly. If you need something similar, 'Elatsoe' by Darcie Little Badger has that same vibe of blending folklore with a modern voice.

I actually messaged the publisher (HighWater Press) last year asking about a 'Leech' sequel—no luck. The first book wrapped with this haunting open-endedness, though, so the potential is huge. Robertson’s writing feels like it’s building toward something bigger, especially with all that unresolved tension around the protagonist’s abilities. If you’re into the art style, Henderson’s work on 'A Girl Called Echo' is worth checking out while we wait. Honestly, the lack of a sequel might be a blessing in disguise; it gives fans room to theorize and obsess over details. I’ve seen some wild fan theories online about where the story could go next!
