UNBELIEVERS, SHIELD THINE EYES! In partnership with Massive Monster and Devolver Digital, Oni Press has announced Cult of the Lamb: Last Sacrament Special #1 – a stunning, 48-page special from writer Alex Paknadel and artist Troy Little continuing the best-selling, critically acclaimed expansion of the global video game phenomenon in comic shops on March 4th!
Following the events of Cult of the Lamb: The First Verse and October’s Cult of the Lamb: Last Sacrament Special #1, the cult is decimated and its faith shaken in the wake of a shocking and bloody betrayal. Power, duty, and determination will all be tested as Lamb must reckon with the remaining threats of the Old Faith. Meanwhile, Ratau—still firm in his faith in the Red Crown—tries to protect and guide Lamb’s remaining followers and undermine the blasphemy of the rival camp. As The One Who Waits prepares their return, great sacrifices must be weighed for the future of the Cult of the Lamb.
Arriving March 2026, the latest edition features covers from Troy Little and Rian Gonzales. This one-shot follows this year’s Cult of the Lamb: Schism Special #1 and the beloved Cult of the Lamb: The First Verse.

Out in May, Marvel‘s Ultimate Spider-Man #15 features a cute variant cover from Rian Gonzales. The cover features Peter, MJ, and their daughter in a cute kawai-like style featuring rainbows, make-believe tea party, and more. Gonzales is accused of swiping at least the May part of the art from Nina, aka InkPangur, the creator of the webcomic Lilith’s Word.
Gonzales took to social media yesterday to share the reasons for the trace claiming a “creative rut,” and a need to “meet the deadline.” In the explanation Gonzales states that the issue has since been “resolved” and apologizes to everyone Rian has hurt. You can read the full statement below.
But, that resolution might not be a reality. Juby, aka CutTimeComic, gives more detail and refutes some of what Gonzales claims. The original art was drawn in 2017 by Nina for Juby as a birthday present. According to Juby, Nina attempted to resolve the issue privately which led to Rian leading to releasing a statement. According to Juby, the issue isn’t resolved. And Juby provides an overlay of the two pieces of art. Where Rian Gonzales calls it a “reference,” it’s pretty clear this is more of a trace when the images or really compared.
Check out the comparison of the original piece of art and Rian Gonzales’ version:
While there’s some differences between the two in detail and the right arm, the two images match up strikingly well.
The situation raises more questions about art Rian Gonzales has released and what else might have been swiped/traced from others as well as flaired up the debate between referencing and tracing.
We’ve reached out to Marvel regarding the status of the Ultimate Spider-Man #15 cover and if it will still be released. You can read Rian’s full statement below.

Writer Gerry Duggan and Garry Brown team for an all-new, action-packed ongoing series titled, Falling in Love on the Path to Hell. First announced with an exclusive ashcan giveaway to retailers at Emerald City Comic Con, this gunslinging tale of love and revenge is set to launch on June 5 from Image Comics.
The debut issue of Falling in Love on the Path to Hell will showcase a massive extra-length story that drops readers straight into the action.
The sun set on samurai and gunslingers at roughly the same time in the 1870s—but Falling in Love on the Path to Hell’s two leads didn’t die off quietly. In Japan, Asami, an Onna-musha warrior and female samurai, would rather die with her weapons than surrender them to a sword hunt. In California, the gunslinger MacRaith follows his revenge to the bitter end and pays the ultimate price.
The unlikely pair are mortally wounded a world apart, but awake together in a purgatory ruled by a ruthless, nightmarish society of damned warriors.
Like a Quentin Taratnino film spliced with the otherworldly intrigue of Lost, Falling in Love on the Path to Hell has it all—action, the dead, the dying, the undead, and of course…romance.
Falling in Love on the Path to Hell #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, June 5:
Cover A by Brown – Lunar Code 0424IM199
Cover B (1:10 copy incentive) by Rian Gonzales – Lunar Code 0424IM200
