Eddie Brock: Carnage #9
(W) Charles Soule (A) Juanan Ramírez
THE DEATH OF CARNAGE?! Eddie and Carnage’s investigation has hardly gone as planned, leaving them at the whims of its mysterious proprietor — a symbiote host Eddie remembers from his days as the King in Black. She has the key to killing Carnage, but the price of ridding the world of him once and for all is costly. Will Eddie be willing to pay it, or will the symbiote live to kill another day?

THE INEVITABLITY OF KANG! As the AVENGERS dive deep into the depth of ruin, KANG’s real battle with MYRDDIN becomes clear. Witness the birth of a villain UNMATCHED!
Organized by the New York Public Library and Paloma Celis Carbajal, Curator for Latin American, Iberian, and US Latino Collections, and Charles Cuykendall Carter, Assistant Curator in the Carl H. Pforzheimer Collection of Shelley and His Circle, ¡Wepa! Puerto Ricans in the World of Comics is a new exhibit celebrating and highlighting Puerto Ricans in the world of comics.
¡Wepa! Puerto Ricans in the World of Comics draws primarily from the Library’s Manuel Martínez Nazario Collection of Puerto Ricans in the World of Comics. It takes attendees through the world of Puerto Ricans in comics both in representations as well as the complex past and a future that has yet to come.
In celebration of ¡Wepa!, the Library is hosting a special gathering and panel discussion during Banned Books Week. Comic artist Ivan Velez, graphic novelist Sharon Lee De La Cruz, animator Mariela Figueroa, and artist Eliana Falcón-Dvorsky will come together to talk about craft, Puerto Rican life and culture in comics, how queerness intersects with their work, and challenges to free expression at a time of record book bans. Drag queen Megami will start the gathering, and follow up the discussion with a performance. The panel takes place October 6 at 6pm at the 53rd Street Library. Tickets are available now.
¡Wepa! Puerto Ricans in the World of Comics is open through March 8, 2026 in the Wachenheim Gallery in the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building.

The Addiction: The Touch #1 continues her journey as she spirals into the darkest places while still standing up for the chance of recovery to help us all find hope.

The Addiction debuted at New York Comic Con in 2023 before bringing in even more fans as one of ZQ Studios and VeVe’s first physical + digital comics. The first Addiction series then continued to thrive with comic book market editions, VeVe collectibles, and exclusive issues for comic conventions including 2024’s San Diego Comic Con.

Todd McFarlane Productions continues its celebration of the expanded Spawn Universe with Gunslinger Spawn #50, the second milestone in the 50/50/50 Program—a yearlong crossover event marking the 50th issues of King Spawn, Gunslinger Spawn, and The Scorched.
This extra-length issue of Gunslinger Spawn delivers part two of an exciting new storyline set to unfold across all three titles, beginning with King Spawn #50 and concluding in The Scorched #50. An ancient force—older than time itself—has returned, and Spawn is in its crosshairs. The tale continues here in two chapters illustrated by Spawn Universe fan-favorites Stephen Segovia and Carlo Barberi, just like King Spawn #50, revealing earth-shattering consequences for Gunslinger and the future of the Spawn mythos.
To mark the milestone, Gunslinger Spawn #50 will debut with a premium lineup of variant covers and incentives that mirror those of King Spawn #50 and the upcoming Scorched #50, uniting all three titles in the 50/50/50 Program. The cover lineup features artwork by Todd McFarlane, Skottie Young, Mark Spears, and Puppeteer Lee—with both Young and Lee delivering connecting cover sets that span all three issues.
At the top of the incentive tier is Cover H, a 1:1000 Raw Pencil Virgin Variant by Todd McFarlane that includes a guaranteed hand-drawn Spawn sketch inserted directly into the book. Fifty of these sketches will be drawn by McFarlane himself. After those 50 orders are fulfilled, all remaining sketches will be randomly assigned from a group of acclaimed Spawn Universe artists: Jonathan Glapion, Carlo Barberi, Brett Booth, Stephen Segovia, and Jason Shawn Alexander. Sketch artist selection is random and cannot be requested, and ordering early does not guarantee a McFarlane sketch.
Each copy of Cover H will also be signed by Todd McFarlane and include a CGC Certificate verifying that both the signature and the inserted sketch are eligible for CGC’s Signature Series program. The certificate also confirms the authenticity of the inserted sketch. McFarlane has committed to never signing this cover again, making these copies strictly limited to this one-time release.
McFarlane is also collaborating with CGC for a special event celebrating the conclusion of the 50/50/50 Program. Official details will be announced at the end of September.
Gunslinger Spawn #50 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, December 31. The Final Order Cutoff deadline for comic shop retailers is slated for Monday, November 24:
