Honor and Curse: Eternal #6
(W) Mark London (A) Jaime Infante
Genshi and the Tengu become an unstoppable force of vengeance as they carve a bloody path out of captivity. Their freedom comes at a terrible cost—and leads straight into the neon-lit hell of Exit City.
Every family has its secrets. The Grimaldis just happen to keep theirs… in the basement.
Mad Cave Studios has announced one of comics’ most unsettling new horror series—Filthy Lambs—a descent into generational curses, infernal bargains, and the terrifying cost of inherited privilege.
Written and lettered by Pallie Paul Allor, with artwork and Cover A by Chris Evenhuis, colors by Sjan Weijers, Cover B by Meghan Hetrick, and Covers C and D by Caitlin Yarsky, Filthy Lambs is a chilling new horror series where generational wealth comes at a blood-soaked price, filled with family drama, supernatural horror, and pitch-black humor into a nightmare decades in the making.
In the basement of Grimaldi Manor, the family patriarch says a prayer and stabs himself in the throat. Blood falls. The demon watches. A woman tries to scream.
Upstairs, three generations of the Grimaldi family and a snapping turtle fill the house with unfulfilled promise and joyful childhood shrieks.
These are tremendous, terrible times for the lineage! The Grimaldis hold a contract with Their Lord Below for ten more years of prodigious wealth and glory.
But old contracts can sour. Monsters can misbehave. And a filthy little lamb can still have teeth.
Equal parts occult family saga and supernatural nightmare, Filthy Lambs is perfect for fans of Hereditary. Twisting domestic dysfunction into demonic horror, the series explores the terrifying consequences of inheritance, greed, and the bargains families make to preserve their legacy.
Filthy Lambs #1 goes on sale October 21, 2026, with Final Order Cut-off on September 28.

The case is almost open. Mad Cave Studios and King Features Syndicate have revealed a first look at Rip Kirby #1, the all-new series bringing one of comics’ most influential detectives back to the page this November.
Written by two-time Eisner Award nominee Christopher Sebela, illustrated by Tango, colored by KJ Diaz, and lettered by Jeff Eckleberry, Rip Kirby delivers a fresh mystery built on one of comics’ most enduring foundations.
War hero. Star athlete. Brilliant scientist. Savvy private investigator. Rip Kirby’s reputation is long secured, and these days he’s enjoying the post-war boom of New York City. With gorgeous and quick-witted Honey Dorian at his side and reformed criminal valet Desmond running the show, it’s a perfect life and perfectly balanced. It’s been perfect for what seems like forever… But Rip’s world is about to get complicated, and his unflappably decent ways are newly tested. Up against a world that seems to be growing too fast, can an upstanding man of morals and fair play like Rip remain himself, or will he be swallowed up by the ugliness?
In 1946, co-creators Alex Raymond and Ward Greene introduced Rip Kirby, a detective who stood apart from the era’s hard-boiled heroes. Solving cases through intelligence, scientific reasoning, and careful observation rather than brute force, Kirby helped redefine crime fiction and left an enduring mark on newspaper strips for generations to come.
The debut issue by Sebela and Tango goes on sale November 4, 2026, with a Final Order Cutoff of October 12, 2026. Rip Kirby #1 will be available with Cover A by Annie Wu, plus a Cover B, Cover C, Cover D, a foil edition, and a blank sketch cover—with more details on the way soon.
A lifetime ago, Lighthouse Orphanage was a beacon—but then, the foundation crumbled. The beacon fell into darkness, and a force of nature was born. Years later, he’s the Floating Man, abandoned by society and driven to build one of his own. He is big brother and protector to all, unable to see that he carries one more title—jailer. Wendy Hoke sees her chance to free herself and the rest of the Floating Man’s captives. She has to take the Floating Man’s spot. She has to become the big sister of the family. Because families fight. Sometimes, they even fight back. Land of Never #3 is a shocking issue as answers are teased as the tension and fear of the captives multiplies.
Land of Never has been an interesting series taking the familiar concept and story of Peter Pan but giving it a big twist. Instead of the kid that doesn’t grow up living in a magical land, this Floating Man kidnaps kids taking them to a worn down factory where they’re held prisoner until their will to escape breaks.
Writer Steve Orlando has given us the horror take on Peter Pan’s story and in Land of Never #3 that story turns even more tragic.
Throughout the series, we’ve only had teases as to “Peter’s” motivations and what’s going on. In Land of Never #3, things become a little more clearer as the origin of the Floating Man is explored by fathers on a mission to find their children. Things have been hinted at as far as a former facility that has since burned down and we get more of that story but no definitive answers, yet.
But, as the mystery of the Floating Man is explored, the comic focuses on Wendy who is being held captive and has taken the role of the big sister, not to the Floating Man, but the other children held. Is she falling in line as far as being a good captive or is there a bigger plan brewing to escape their jailer?
But, the bigger question as to why these kids remain captive is really answered. In the classic story of Peter Pan, you at least had fun and adventure to explain the decision to stay. There’s been no evidence here of that, quite the opposite. The facilities seem run down, dirty, and food and supplies seem scarce. But, Orlando gives us the why in a brutal scene that borders on nauseous and excessive. It drives home the point though.
That scene, and the overall bleak feeling of the comic, is delivered by Miguel Mora who is joined by Fares Maese on color by letters by Micah Myers. The comic has done a great job of creating its atmosphere, the general feel of the series. This issue keeps that up and more as it gives us straight up horror as the Floating Man flexes his strength and brutality to implement his rules. There’s a shock element to it that feels almost excessive but it drives home the point to the characters and the readers and makes the situation even more frightening, tense, and upsetting. Even the slight moments of joy in the comic still have an ominous feel to them as it’s more people acting the role than actually feeling connection and some happiness.
Land of Never #3 is an issue that shifts things a bit, taking it all from a story of simple kidnappings to something far more scary. It’s an issue that definitely feels like it has a line before and after that’ll apply to the entire series and the Floating Man goes from a misguided individual to a monster. It has me both excited and scared to see what comes next.

Before the yellow coat, the badge, and a lifetime spent chasing criminals, Dick Tracy was a soldier.
Mad Cave Studios and Tribune Content Agency returns to the past in Dick Tracy: Veterans Day Special, a 40-page standalone story from writers Alex Segura, Michael Moreci, and Keir Graff, with art by Francesco Scimonelli, colors by Marissa Louise, and letters by Patrick Brosseau, featuring a main cover by Geraldo Borges and a variant cover by Francesco Scimonelli.
Dick Tracy is a soldier on the front lines of the deadliest conflict the world’s ever seen. Today’s assignment is supposed to be easy: Dick’s assigned to protect a camera crew gathering footage of the glories of battle. But there is nothing glorious about war. And this one will haunt the detective-to-be for years to come.
Set years before Tracy became the detective readers know, Dick Tracy: Veterans Day Special turns its attention to an earlier chapter of his life and an assignment that exposes the distance between the image of war and its reality. What begins as a straightforward protection detail becomes an experience Tracy will carry long after leaving the battlefield.
A standalone entry in Mad Cave Studios’ Dick Tracy universe, Dick Tracy: Veterans Day Special offers longtime readers a deeper look at the man behind the badge while giving new readers a self-contained entry point into the series.
Dick Tracy: Veterans Day Special goes on sale November 11, 2026 (FOC October 19).
