Don't miss one of the most pivotal issues in Spider-Man history! UNIVERSAL MONSTERS: BLOOD OF THE WOLFMAN #1 Writer: Joshua Williamson Artist: Pip Martin, Leomacs Publisher: Skybound Entertainment Cover Price: $4.99 Release Date: June 24, 2026 THE WOLF MAN REBORN FOR A NEW GENERATION Adam Jaeger thought he could become someone new at college... but not like this.

As the monster within tries to claw loose, Adam will do anything he can to stop from becoming...THE WOLF MAN. The superstar team of JOSHUA WILLIAMSON (G.I. JOE, Superman) and LEOMACS (Basketful of Heads, Rogues) presents the next hit horror series of 2026! TRADE DISCUSSION BENJAMIN Writer: Ben H. Winters Artist: Leomacs Publisher: Oni Press Cover Price: $24.99 More than just a writer, more than just a science-fiction icon, Benjamin J. Carp was a cultural revolutionary. Over the course of 44 novels and hundreds of short stories—including the counterculture classic The Man They Couldn't Erase—Carp pushed the boundaries of literary respectability for the sci-fi genre and his readers' perception of reality itself . . . until decades of amphetamine abuse and Southern California excess finally ended a mind-bending career that always just escaped mainstream success. He died in 1982. Until 2025 . . . when Benjamin J. Carp awakens, alive, in a burned-out motel on the fringes of Los Angeles. He remembers dying. He knows he shouldn't exist. Is he a dream? A robot? A ghost? A clone? A simulation? In his own time, Carp pondered all of these scenarios through his fiction—and now, as he treks from Studio City to Venice Beach and onward into the paranoid sprawl of 21st-century Los Angeles, he will be called to investigate his greatest mystery yet: himself. From Edgar Award nominee and Philip K. Dick Award winner Ben H. Winters (EC's Cruel Universe, The Last Policeman trilogy) and rising star Leomacs (EC's Epitaphs from the Abyss, Ghostlore) comes a uniquely fascinating and hilariously deranged excursion into the metatextual nexus where existence and oblivion, past and future, genius and madness, and glitter and grim reality all meet just beyond Hollywood Boulevard.
