The Beauty, the comic series turned television show, has its premiere date, which is Wednesday, January 21, 2026 on both FX and Hulu. The first three episodes will launch starting at 9pm ET/PT. The following eight episodes will be released weekly each Wednesday at the same time with a pair of episodes airing back-to-back in the show’s final two weeks.
The Ryan Murphy television show is based on the comic by Jeremy Haun and Jason A. Hurley. It was originally released by Image Comics and a new volume is being released by Ignition Press who also released a new collection of the original volume.
In The Beauty, the world of high fashion turns dark when international supermodels begin dying in gruesome and mysterious ways. FBI Agents Cooper Madsen (Evan Peters) and Jordan Bennett (Rebecca Hall) are sent to Paris to uncover the truth. As they delve deeper into the case, they uncover a sexually transmitted virus that transforms ordinary people into visions of physical perfection, but with terrifying consequences. Their path leads them directly into the crosshairs of The Corporation (Ashton Kutcher), a shadowy tech billionaire who has secretly engineered a miracle drug dubbed ‘The Beauty,’ who will do anything to protect his trillion-dollar empire—including unleashing his lethal enforcer, The Assassin (Anthony Ramos). As the epidemic spreads, Jeremy (Jeremy Pope), a desperate outsider, is caught in the chaos, searching for purpose as the agents race across Paris, Venice, Rome, and New York to stop a threat that could alter the future of humanity. The Beauty is a global thriller that asks: what would you sacrifice for perfection?
Bodies are piling up, and the police are no closer to finding out what is causing seemingly normal people to turn into homicidal maniacs. Unfortunately for Detective Nika, she may no longer need to go looking for answers, as the killers may be coming to her!
Also looking for clues are Mina and her friends, enthusiasts of true crime shows. They’ve been noticing the darkness creeping into their city, and they are starting to ask their own questions—especially since Mina survived a random attack herself. It’s only a matter of time before someone else hears the mysterious podcast and more people wind up dead.

RIPCORD #1
Written by Cullen Bunn Illustrated by Aneke Colors by Patricia Martin Cover A by Jorge Fornes Cover B by Aneke Cover C by Maria Wolf Ignition Exclusive cover by Patricia Martin
The drug known as “Ripcord” has become the scourge of the world. It’s extremely addictive, and it doesn’t just alter your perception, it fundamentally alters who you are.
Ripcord users have their whole bodies taken over by the substance, and it transforms them into mindless, frenzied killers who want nothing but to destroy. This makes every place the drug has grown popular dangerous.
Dillon is one of thousands who has lost a family member to Ripcord, but unlike so many others, she’s going to do something about it. Her sister has gone missing in the Outback, and Dillon is going to stop at nothing—and let nothing stop her—until she brings her home.
This latest foray into the darker depths of humanity from writer Cullen Bunn (The Sixth Gun, Deluge) is brought to vivid life by artist Aneke (DC Comics Bombshells, Bylines in Blood) and colorist Patricia Martin (Dune: The Graphic Novel). Ripcord is an ultraviolent exploitation comic in the vein of movies like Mad Max and Near Dark. Each issue features a cover by Jorge Fornes, the artist of Rorschach and Danger Street.

Every family has problems – but the Savage Family has actual monsters.
Jordan Savage is a normal 16-year-old kid barely holding it together after his parents’ recent divorce. His twin sister Winter is his opposite in every way—including how she is coping with the changes in the Savage family’s lives.
And those changes are bigger than they could even imagine. They are about to find out that the boring, bickering parents they’ve lived with this whole time are secretly ancient deathdealing barbarian warriors. They have been living quietly for 3000 years, having defeated their nemesis—the evil sorcerer warlord Farklar the Fleshless—leaving the world safe for humanity. Only now, Farklar has returned, and his army of hideous Mordorks are about to devour Des Moines. Now the Savages are piled in Mom’s minivan headed for Iowa to wage war against Black Magic Armageddon. Jordan is freaking out, Winter thinks it’s all pretty cool, and no one is sure if Mom and Dad can get along long enough to save civilization from destruction.
Just Brutal is an action-packed thrill ride that stacks the trauma of family against the challenge of saving the world. Written by Dennis Hopeless (Heart Eyes; Spider-Woman) with art by Brahm Revel (Guerillas; TMNT: Jennika) and colorist Marissa Louise (Mr. Terrific).

The experiments are working! Etta is starting to see the effects that the mysterious flowers that dot the landscape around the Meridian Fellowship can have on rabbits, and her benefactors are urging her to start testing her theories on human beings. She isn’t sure which terrifies her more: the potential consequences of such dangerous actions, or the agony of not knowing what amazing things her formulas could do for her fellow man.
Yet, the more she thinks she understands how the science works, the less she comprehends the influence the otherworldly forces that fuel her experiments are having over her own life.
This tale of cosmic horror from Stephanie Williams (Wonder Woman) and Letizia Cadonici (House of Slaughter) intensifies.
DELUGE #4

The rain continues to fall, and the corridors continue to flood, bringing more monsters into the prison. The surviving guards and inmates are starting to realize, however, that the deadliest threat they are facing is themselves. If the infighting doesn’t get them, then the sins of their past will. When faced with the spectral embodiments of their crimes, some of the women would rather perish in the jaws of the evil creatures that are hunting them. Can Maggie lead one last push to find an escape before it’s too late?
Deluge reaches its penultimate issue, as writer Cullen Bunn (Harrow Country, Deadpool Destroys the Marvel Universe) and artist Marika Cresta (Star Wars: High Republic) open the floodgates of fear!

Each scavenge is its own adventure, with the constant threat of ferals attacking. The bigger the danger the bigger the spoils, however, as a terrible attack leads him to a treasure trove. But can he get back to Weedy in time to ensure the future the old man dreams of?
The visionary series by the Miranda Brothers (We Live, Blade Forger) reaches its first emotional crescendo as young Halu learns his most difficult lesson yet!

MURDER PODCAST #5
Written by Jeremy Haun Illustrated by Mike Tisserand Colors by Nick Filardi Cover A by Jeremy Haun & Nick Filardi Cover B by Mike Tisserand
Mina and her friends are grappling with the terrible loss of the previous issue, as the murder podcast has hit too close to home. Now more than ever, they find themselves desperately needing to crack the mystery behind why everyone is dying. Despite their estrangement, Nika updates Josie on what the police have figured out about Dead Sounds, and Josie rallies the team to go dig deeper on their own.
Little do they know, the cult who are helping the spread of the cursed podcast are mobilizing, as well.
Master storytellers Jeremy Haun (The Beauty) and Mike Tisserand take us closer to the source of the killings in another bone-chilling issue of Murder Podcast.
In a future where humanity has vanished, a new form of life rises from the ruins: the Serants, artificial beings born from mysterious technological chrysalises known as Superdragons. Each one carries a Pearl, a biotechnological core that holds their consciousness, their memories…their soul.
Halu is a Serant born late, emerging from a forgotten silo. He is rescued from destruction by Weedy, an eccentric scavenger obsessed with the remnants of the past and the search for meaning in their own existence. Soon after, Halu meets Fix, a practical, strong, and luminous young mechanic who awakens something deep within him. Together, in a world of ruins and dangers, they search for meaning, connection, and a reason to endure.
Arcadia is a work of existential science fiction–profoundly human, where memory and love endure as a precious mystery that refuses to fade. A story that explores what makes us human…when humanity is no longer there to tell us the answer.

The rain isn’t stopping, and the women incarcerated in the Sieverville Correctional Facility are starting to realize that no one is going to let them out, and no one is coming to rescue them either. The guards are useless to defend them against the incoming flood, and even more so when it comes to the monsters lurking in the depths.
Groups of prisoners are starting to break off on their own looking for a way out, but they can’t be sure what they will find hiding around each corner. If it’s not the deadly creatures the storm has stirred up from the muck, then it’s the muck they face every day, the ghosts they carry with them, which themselves now seem to be made real.

It’s Mariposa Montiel’s first day on the job with Nether Operations Place, a shadow organization responsible for protecting Earth against invasions from other realms.

It’s the opportunity of a lifetime, but Mari’s intensely intellectual field partner, Allen Dion, is openly envious of her first-hand experience with the extraordinary; and her boss, Dorothy Gale—yes, THE Dorothy Gale of the Land of Oz—has little patience for learning curves and may be carrying some baggage of her own into the mission.

You’ve met Rook. You also met Madeline. And they’ve met each other.
Now, the romantic games can really begin!
Madeline has immersed herself fully in Rook’s world. The art thief has infiltrated the luxurious Koh Kingfisher resort as a security guard, and he’s using his perch from the control room to spy on the guests via the closed-circuit cameras. When they leave their rooms, he enters on the sly, stealing the expensive paintings from the walls and replacing them with fakes. Madeline decides to speed up the process by luring the unsuspecting victims away herself to give Rook the access he needs. But can the crook handle the jealousy her scheme fuels within him?
You’re invited to be part of the sexy fun by fan-favorite writer Leah Williams and redhot artist David Baldeón, the team who previously entertained you in X-Factor and Power Girl! Plus, a super sexy cover by Sandra Chlewinska (Star Wars: Unlimited)!

What had been a trip of self-reflection and grieving is now a chance to explore herself even further. How far will she go with this man, both in the bedroom and outside of it? Rook’s scheme to rob the extravagant resort of all its art may just be the kind of adventure Madeline has been looking for!
