James Tynion IV and Tiny Onion have announced the first round of locations for Corpse Tour ‘25, the signing tour to support the new horror series from Image Comics, Exquisite Corpses. Tynion and members of the Exquisite Corpses creative team, dubbed the “Corpse Crew,” will stop at comic shops across North America, making each signing a unique event.

“I don’t think I’ve ever set out to do a signing tour of this scale, but we wanted to pull out all the stops for Exquisite Corpses,” said Tynion. “I couldn’t be more excited to visit a bunch of incredible shops across the country over these next 13 months, and to be joined by some of my amazing Corpse Crew collaborators along the way. Let the game begin!”

Each stop on Corpse Tour ‘25 will feature an intimate Q+A session with Tynion and guests, a signing, and a pop-up shop featuring exclusive tour merch only available at tour locations.

To kick off the tour, Tiny Onion and Revenge Of are combining forces to throw an Exquisite Release Party in Los Angeles. The release party will feature exclusive merch, giveaways, spooky refreshments and treats from Deadly Sweet Co., a signing with artist Alex Pardee, flash tattoos with Ghosted Tattoo Studio, and a giant Corpse Crew signing with Becca Carey, Che Grayson, James Tynion IV, Jordie Bellaire, Michael Walsh, Pornsak Pichetshote, and Tyler Boss.

In Exquisite Corpses, every five years on Halloween, the wealthiest families in America play a game. 12 of the deadliest people in the world are dropped into a small town with just one goal: last killer standing wins. For the citizens of Oak Valley, Maine—this year’s unlucky arena—the goal is much simpler. They must survive the night. The series will not only feature the work of Tynion IV and Walsh, but also a team of comics superstars. Each issue will build upon the last in a true ‘exquisite corpse’ game style, with a passing of the baton from creator to creator to unfold the story in a collaborative and competitive fashion.

The Last of Us fans will find much to love in the apocalyptic Spread series by fan-favorite The Strange Tale of Luther Strode writer Justin Jordan and Twig artist Kyle Strahm. This infectious series will be collected in its entirety and available in one shelf-busting Spread Compendium paperback edition this October from Image Comics.

This definitive package includes Spread issues #1-25 and weighs in at over 500 pages of tentacled, science fiction horror. This is a must-read for fans of survivalist stories or Lovecraftian terror.

“Want to know what would happen if John Carpenter’s The Thing ate North America? Do you think Lone Wolf and Cub after the end of the world sounds awesome? Spread is all of that and more,” said Jordan. “And now we’ve finally got the infection contained in one big damn volume for the first time. The complete story, all in one place.”

Series creator Josh Blaylock returns for Interior Art, joined by Brian Rogers, with covers by Pop Mhan, Tim Seeley, and More

Mercy Sparx is back-and she’s dragging demons from her past, both literal and emotional, into the spotlight in the brand-new, three-part miniseries Mercy Sparx: Daddy Issues, launching in comic book shops everywhere this July. Exclusive early editions and variants will debut on Kickstarter this month.

Series creator and writer Josh Blaylock returns for his second stint on interior art, with Brian Rogers (Trailer Park Boys) joining for finishes. Greg & Fake (Santos Sisters) return for colors, along with Jenn Chun, and Sarah Mitrache (Hack/Slash: Back to School), with lettering by Shawn DePasquale.

The story dives headfirst into Mercy’s tangled history with the various father figures who shaped her life, and the messy, chaotic relationships and flings that followed. The series picks up directly after the events of No More Angels Left to Fall, after Mercy finally put the traumas caused by her nefarious mother to rest, and encountered her most significant “bounty” yet.

Fantagraphics has announced to publishing the newest book by Sole Otero, a “rising star of international comics” (Publishers Weekly Starred Review), on October 7th, 2025.

“Told as a fractured narrative and following a sisterhood of witches from the 1700s to the present, Witchcraft is a mesmerizing mystery to piece together.”

“Sole Otero’s English debut, Mothballs, was a quietly powerful graphic novel that asserted herself onto the international comics scene,” said editor Conrad Groth. “But now her newest work, Witchcraft, reveals the lofty heights of her creativity, talent, and literary ambition. It’s rich in ideas and meaning, effortlessly jumps in tone from introspective to eerie to hilariously raunchy, and showcases a stunning range of art and storytelling styles. Simply put, a powerhouse of a book that playfully pushes the comics medium forward. I am ecstatic that Sole’s books have a home at Fantagraphics.”

Sole Otero commented: “The release of Mothballs in English has been very significant for me since I’ve been reading American comics since I was a teenager. From far away I’ve dreamt about this unreachable world of graphic novels and authors and I am of course very happy to become a part of it. Witchcraft is an exercise of writing a mysterious dreamy story that gathers lots of my interests and shapes them as a horror fiction. For me it was supposed to be the challenge of building a universe where not everything needed an explanation but everything spoke about my surroundings and my country.”

New York Times bestselling, award winning creative team Brian K. Vaughan (Saga, We Stand on Guard, Paper Girls) and Niko Henrichon (Pride of Baghdad) are back with a provocative, hard hitting new graphic novel titled, Spectators. First serialized in Vaughan’s Substack newsletter, this jaw-dropping, lavishly hand-painted epic will be collected in its entirety at last and available in a stunning hardcover edition this September.

Spectators sees Vaughan and Henrichon together again—for the first time in nearly two decades since their award winning, contemporary classic Pride of Baghdad took the industry by storm—this time for their most ambitious project yet.

Now, Spectators promises to put the “graphic” back in graphic novel and will feature an unconventional supernatural romance, a critical exploration of sex and violence, and a deep dive into the very different ways we obsessively watch both.

Set hundreds of years in the future, New York City is haunted by many ghosts, including a voyeuristic woman who died in our present day and a mysterious gun-toting man from the distant past. Normally solo travelers, these two specters meet each other just in time to observe what might be the end of the (living) world.
