THE FUTURE OF THE DEADMAN! In this loving ode to an occult-classic comic, the Deadman finds himself flung to one of a few feasible futures in which the forward march of Earth’s phantoms has fallen off… for good. Boston Brand—human once more!— must survive a strange sojourn through a soulless tomorrow, featuring the freakiest-ever futuristic takes on a few familiar faces belonging to the DCU’s phantasmagoric foothold. Soldier on, photon stranger, through the psycho-spiritual swamp that is… the Gr33n.
The truth is out there! Dynamite Entertainment and Disney Publishing Worldwide have announced further details on the debut of new comic books from The X-Files, officially launching this December!
Veteran and fan-favorite franchise writer Joe Harris returns alongside artist R.D. Brown to the tales of Mulder and Scully with a new set of declassified cases from the vault. The new comic series picks up some time after the end of the episode “My Struggle IV,” the season and series finale of the eleventh season of the show.
Agents Mulder and Scully return once more to the FBI’s X-Files division in the shadow of the loss of their child William, the presumed death of the Cigarette Smoking Man, and the cliffhanger ending of Scully being pregnant once more. The shadows soon touch our heroes again as the conspiracy of a secret alien presence in the world is tracked down by both the duo and a mysterious organization seeking to harness it for their own purposes.
To complement this mind-tingling tale from Harris and Brown, Dynamite announces the full range of enticing covers for the comic series. Artists Clayton Crain and Ivan Tao‘s styles complement the eerie energy of the franchise. In addition to Harris adding to his nearly 60 issues to date of The X-Files comics, another veteran is back with The Walking Dead superstar Charlie Adlard doing covers, following his breakout work with Sculder and Mully in the 1990s for comics originally published by Topps. A special icon cover presents a classic mixed media image by Miran Kim from that same beloved era. Collectors can also opt for the exciting blind bag, filled with rare variants including an exclusive piece by superstar Martin Morazzo.
W. Maxwell Prince and Martín Morazzo will get fans screaming again this Halloween season with a very special, Ice Cream Man #1: Chocolate/Vanilla Twist. This hair-raising thriller will bring the bestselling series’ debut issue back to print in stark black and white and will feature a highly collectible, interactive cover treatment. It will hit shelves in October from Image Comics.
As a cherry on top, Ice Cream Man #1: Chocolate/Vanilla Twist edition will also boast remastered lettering by Good Old Neon and a BRAND NEW Ice Cream Man short story brought to life by the entire creative team.
More bone-chilling than any horror movie in theaters, Ice Cream Man #1: Chocolate/Vanilla Twist will provide fans with a truly toothache-inducing terror-ride of entertainment. The pages of this inaugural comic book confection will be tucked behind something special: a “hidden” treatment of the original cover art…which will have focal decoder technology to make the Ice Cream Man disappear! But don’t worry, sweeties. To bring him back, simply grab your included ‘Lookety Split’ Decoder Lens and unlock the original cover art…now with an added sprinkling of secret messages and pictures! It’s comix-cover-acrobatics as you’ve never quite seen before!
It’s a celebration of Ice Cream Man befitting its legacy: weird, inexplicable…and cool as all-get-out. Fans should grab their copy (before they, too, disappear), and get ready for the heady, steady march to the milestone Ice Cream Man #50 issue arriving in 2027.
Ice Cream Man #1: Chocolate/Vanilla Twist will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, October 14.
The sold out sequential sensation is back—with a new, silver age design! W. Maxwell Prince, Martín Morazzo, Chris O’Halloran’sIce Cream Man is proud to present the second printing of its most formally innovative issue ever—a haunting story told across a deck of cards—will hit stores this October from Image Comics.
The first printing (with its fantasy-forward design) vanished faster than cash at a casino. But now, due to popular demand, there’s another chance to experience this stacked comic book EVENT…delivered via a beautiful, custom-designed deck of cards (featuring custom backs and a custom box, too!).
All art is by Ice Cream Man stalwarts Morazzo and O’Halloran with Good Old Neon. Some cards tell part of the story; other cards cast inscrutable spells on its unwitting characters; some cards “play” and push the narrative in unexpected directions. Tarot cards, credit cards, flash cards…all 55 come together to tell a story about cards, through cards. It’s a kind of close-up magic trick…that might leave fans a little flush of heart.
So fans get ready (once again) to: Go Fish, Draw Four, Declare War, and (probably) Fold in this exciting new comics format—told, as ever, in the creepy, strange voice readers have come to expect from all things Ice Cream Man.

THE DEADMAN IN HELL! OR…
The third edition of this morbid disquisition concerning the attrition/detrition of the human condition, which, in the weekly tradition, boasts a four-color exhibition on some printer’s emission. Here, by order of an anonymous optician, watch closely this vision of our titular apparition (armed, you’ll remember, with fresh erudition) try and survive—by another’s volition—a dire and dangerous mission through the hissin’, Stygian conditions of putrid and pockmarked Perdition—a kind of new rendition (depicted as a living, breathing, country-sized conniption), which is rich in its list of sick compositions: e.g., reason’s egregious abolition; a pyrotechnic passel of pernicious seditions; hideous, bulging buck-toothed dentition; admittedly ambitious demonic deglutition…of gargoyles and ghouls in decomposition…not to mention an array of impossible physical positions that a physician might consider the work of magicians. So please accept our contrition for this rude imposition, our addled transmission this ungodly, offset-press parturition—one that we wish some brave obstetrician would bring to fruition its quick decommission.
With six additional issues from W. Maxwell Prince, Martín Morazzo, Chris O’Halloran, and Good Ol’ Neon, Boston Brand’s journey through life, death, and the strange spaces in between is only beginning.
