Posted on by

When Wizards of the Coast released their wide Marvel set for Magic: The Gathering, we noted a lack of mystical characters and guessed we’d be seeing a future release dedicated to them. A game featuring wizards without Marvel’s mystical side of its universe seemed a bit odd. Well, our prediction is now a reality as Wizards of the Coast and Marvel have revealed Magic: The Gathering | Marvel: Darkhold Destiny. In collaboration with Marvel, Marvel: Darkhold Destiny is the first Universes Beyond set created around an original story and setting. The panel also unveiled additional Marvel collaborations coming in 2026 including the Secret Lair Countdown Kit: Marvel’s History of Heroes and Doomsdrop.

By taking the core elements players love about Magic: The Gathering, the team thoughtfully and strategically expressed those design intentions through the Marvel Universe. The narrative unfolds across nearly 30 dimensions and is centered around four main characters—Doctor Strange, Thor, Hela, and Dormammu.

The petrifying partnership tears into comic shops late 2027 with the fan-favorite The Purge. Eisner Award-winning writer Dan Watters and artist Juan José Ryp brings the dystopian and compelling premise ​– a world in which any and all crime, especially murder, is legal one night a year​ – to the pages of the comics with a gripping new chapter that features all the action, tension, and emotion that fans crave from the thrilling franchise. Following The Purge will be more unforgettable hits from Blumhouse making their comic book debuts with all-new stories, including M3GAN and New York Times best-selling writer Tim Seeley taking a stab at Happy Death Day.

A darkly comedic slasher with a sci-fi twist, Happy Death Day​ made an undeniable impact on pop culture with its mystery about a murder victim being forced to relive the day of their death over and over again to discover the shocking truth and unmask their killer.

Happy Death Day was written by Scott Lobdell known for writing numerous comics for Marvel, DC, and more. He generally has left the comic industry and was embroiled in controversy for past behavior and comments. Lobdell wrote the original film script though not its sequel Happy Death Day 2U.

Packed with chills and twisted humor with rich themes, the beloved sci-fi horror M3GAN is the saga of an advanced A.I. doll which takes its good-intentioned programming to extreme and bloody measures.

NYCC 2026: Michael E. Uslan, Steven S. DeKnight and Sebastián Cabrol Present Dr. Syn #1 – A Fiery, Blood-Soaked Tale of Revolution & Rebellion

Posted on by

Oni Press has unveiled Dr. Syn #1 (of 4), the fiery FIRST ISSUE of a rebellious new resurrection for the infamous vigilante-turned-freedom fighter … and a brand-new beginning for one of history’s first proto-pulp heroes in a daring new incarnation. Traitor. Rogue. Revenant. Rebel. He’s been known by many names . . . and now writers Michael E. Uslan and Steven S. DeKnight join artist Sebastián Cabrol to chronicle the fearsome origin of the once-forgotten revolutionary who first watered liberty’s tree with the blood of tyrants — beginning in comic shops everywhere in January 2027. 

Once, the Reverend Doctor Christopher Syn waged a guerrilla insurgency across 18th-century England— justice for the cruel deaths of his family at the hands of King George III and the rest of England’s persecuted and oppressed. Hidden behind a terrifying mask to keep his true identity concealed, Syn’s rebellion soon became legend, inspiring copycat uprisings across the English countryside as the “Scarecrow of Romney Marsh” became a beacon of resistance against his nation’s mad monarch. 

But that’s where history’s chronicle of the Scarecrow’s reign is about to go violently, terribly wrong . . . ​Now Dr. Syn has been captured, tried, and condemned for his crimes. Forced into death by exile in the British Empire’s most inhospitable outpost—the American penal colony known as “Georgia”—Syn has found himself imprisoned alongside a hardscrabble crew of his king’s most notorious “undesirables.” With a mismatched team of allies fueled by the same burning vengeance for justice at his side, can England’s most dangerous revolutionary finally bring the empire down in an inferno of roaring flames . . . and could this backwater collection of pestilence-ridden colonies called America provide the spark? ​The year is 1775. And Dr. Syn’s war is about to begin.

Across more than a century, Dr. Syn has been a recurring fixture of feature film, pulp fiction, and comics book publishing. Always clad in his trademark Scarecrow mask, Syn was first introduced in 1915 by author Russell Thorndike as the titular smuggler hero at the epicenter of Doctor Syn: A Tale of the Romney Marsh. As his adventures continued across six more novels, Syn’s exploits were the subject of multiple film adaptations from the 1930s onward, culminating in 1963’s Disney feature film The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh, which also resulted in a tie-in comic book series published by Dell Comics. Uslan, DeKnight and Cabrol’s new reinvention of the character will be the first major appearance of the character – frequently counted alongside Tarzan, Conan, and Buck Rogers as one of the first and most influential proto-pulp archetypes – in the 21st century and will mark the first time the legendary British character has walked American shores.

With covers from Dustin Weaver, Jeffrey Alan Love, Elia Bonetti, and Kelley Jones, in stores January 2027!

Don’t miss Oni Press’s panel at New York Comic Con on Friday, October 9, 2026 between 4:30 PM – 5:15 PM in North-Room S 406.1—featuring Dr. Syn co-writer Michael E. Uslan as a panelist as well as creators George Northy (Yuletide), Oliver Mertz (A Ghost Arm Made of Angry Ghosts), Ryan O’Sullivan (Judge Dredd / Biker Mice from Mars), and Dave Baker (Halloween Boy) and Oni Press editors Karl Bollers and Bess Pallares.
