"Penny Dreadful" Season 4 was cancelled after the network decided to end its series with Eva Green's Vanessa Ives death on Season 3.

According to Showtime's President David Nevins, "Penny Dreadful," a two-hour, top-rated drama series, was originally planned to air for only three seasons since that is what the showrunner John Logan wanted.

"John has declared the show really, as its core has always been Vanessa Ives. John said three seasons is enough and I think it's really interesting that we live in this world where every show can have its own rhythm and create its own destiny," Nevin told The Hollywood Reporter. "This is a case of your creator says this is the best thing for the show and eventually you just say OK, do it, just do it well."

Following the cancellation of "Penny Dreadful" Season 4, there were reports saying that Showtime's monster drama will be back real soon. However, its continuation will be in a form of comic book.

In the official Twitter account of "Penny Dreadful," it was said that the comic book series will come out on early 2017.

On the other hand, comic editor Lizzie Kaye, as reported by Slashfilm said that they are very excited to return "to the incredible world of show."

"There are a lot of stories to tell, and there is no one better to tell them than Chris King. What he's got planned will just take your breath away, and I can't wait for fans to see it brought to life by artist Jesus Hervas," Kaye said.

It has been said that the comic series is set after the TV show's season finale. Ethan Chandler (Josh Hartnett) will have a hard time to move on after the death of Vanessa. However, he will have to encounter the creatures of the dark again.

There were speculations that the comic book series will focus on Ferdinand Lyle and Cartiona Hartdegen's search for mummies in Egypt.

Some rumors suggested that Vanessa will have a reunion with Sir Malcolm Murray for the last time. This is still to be verififed.

There has been no official statement yet if the comic book will be entitled "Penny Dreadful" Season 4, but one thing is certain: it's not yet the end of the show.
