in 2007 wildstorm announced its plan to cancel its ongoing new line horror comics in favor of publishing mini-series and specials based on the movie franchises. the ongoing "the texas chainsaw massacre" series would come to an end after a six-issue run. replacing them two months later came "the texas chainsaw massacre: cut!", a one-issue special written by will pfeifer and with art by stefano raffaele. this issue would take place thirty years after the first film, with a group of film-students seeking to document the hewitts. one month later, a second special, "the texas chainsaw massacre: about a boy", written by dan abnett and andy lanning and with art by joel gomez, would follow. this issue featured a back story on thomas hewitt as a child prior to the events of "the beginning". a third one-shot titled "hoyt, by himself" reunited writers abnett and lanning with artist wesley craig and focused on hoyt's past, in particular expanding on his time as a pow during the korean war and perforce taking up cannibalism to survive.
