As an extension of Stone Sour's double album 'House of Gold & Bones,' vocalist Corey Taylor is creating a comic book. A four-issue miniseries will be written by Taylor and published by Dark Horse Comics to accompany the two-part Stone Sour album.

Set to drop on Oct. 22, 'House of Gold & Bones - Part 1,' Stone Sour's fourth full-length album is one of the most anticipated releases of 2012. The second part of 'House of Gold and Bones' does not have an official release date as of this posting, but we know that Corey Taylor, who also provides vocals for Slipknot, will be appearing at New York's Comic Con this week (Oct. 11-14), according to Roadrunner Records.

Corey Taylor recently spoke about his passion that led to his animated endeavor. "It's something I've always wanted to do," says Taylor. "I've always been very critical of when comics go south and basically pull the fan out of what the potential is. It's me pretty much putting my money where my mouth is."

He continues, "Especially in (the music) industry, you're encouraged to not only appear to be as youthful and arrogant as possible, but you're encouraged to make your own terrible decisions and have this kind of abhorrent behavior. People think that it sells. I figured out a long time ago that that's so boring and so clichéd. To me, it was about shuffling that off and figuring out who do I want to be? Who do I want to try to be? Who do I want to aspire to be?"

Get ready for Stone Sour's 'House of Gold & Bones,' which will drop on Oct. 22.
