Marty hosts an action-packed cowboy cosplay weekend while Marnie gets into it with the FBI, and Orson finally pulls the trigger. Clint laments his lost love, while William finds his inner fake gangster and then meets a real fake gangster who’s having a full-scale meltdown.

From yoga interrupted to the Battle of Fallujah, with odd hallucinations and butlers doing burpees, it’s just another ordinary week in Verona, Wyoming.

SDCC 2026: Tiny Onion Announces its Tour Stop

James Tynion IV’s production house Tiny Onion is returning to San Diego Comic-Con this July! The popular Corpse Tour is adding a new stop at Now and Never Comics on SDCC Saturday, July 25, to celebrate the release of Exquisite Corpses: Rascal Randy #1 and the hit comic book series. Exquisite Corpses co-creators Tynion and Michael Walsh, Rascal Randy writer Tyler Boss, and cover artist Christian Ward will be participating in a Q&A and signing at the event. 

Limited tickets for the event are available now via this link. There are two types of tickets, VIP and Signing Only: the VIP ticket gets fans access to the Q&A, early access to the signing (limit of 3 signed items per ticket), and the Now Or Never Comics store exclusive variant of Exquisite Corpses: Rascal Randy #1 by artist Guillaume Martinez. The Signing Only ticket gets fans access to the signing (limit of 3 signed items per ticket) starting at 9:00pm PST, once the Q&A has wrapped up.

In Exquisite Corpses, every five years on Halloween, the wealthiest families in America play a game. Twelve of the deadliest people in the world are dropped into a small town with just one goal: last killer standing wins. For the citizens of Oak Valley, Maine—this year’s unlucky arena—the goal is much simpler. They must survive the night. The first issue can be read digitally for free on the Image Comics site

Exquisite Corpses was the biggest original IP comic hit of 2025; over 600k issues have been sold to date in collaboration with Image Comics, marking the best debut comic for five-time Eisner Award-winning writer Tynion in over three years, in collaboration with artist Walsh and the Corpse Crew of a dozen exciting creators. Exquisite Corpses: Rascal Randy is the first limited series spinning out of the main series. Boss is joined by fan-favorite artist Dylan Burnett, Eisner Award-winning colorist Jordie Bellaire, and star letterer Becca Carey on the series about the terrifying bunny mascot killer. The first issue hits shelves on July 8.

The horror franchise is growing to include not just Exquisite Corpses: Rascal Randy, but also two other new spinoff limited series (Exquisite Corpses: Fox Mask Killer by Che Grayson and Exquisite Corpses: Lone Gunman by Pornsak Pichetshote), along with an anthology one-shot (Exquisite Corpses: Book of the Dead) in addition to the upcoming second season, the feature film adaptation, and the tabletop card game.

The Tiny Onion team is also celebrating 9 Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards nominations at San Diego Comic-Con, including nominations for Exquisite Corpses. In collaboration with publishers BOOM! Studios, Dark Horse, DC, DSTLRY, and Image Comics, Tiny Onion’s produced works and collaborators have been nominated in the categories of Best New Series, Best Continuing Series, Best One-Shot/Single Issue, Best Limited Series, Best Writer, Best Penciler/Inker, Best Coloring, Best Painter/Multimedia Artist, and Best Lettering. Widely regarded as “the Oscars of comics,” the prestigious Eisner Awards honor the industry’s very best comic books and graphic novels, and the creatives behind those works. The winners are nominated by esteemed industry judges and chosen by industry professionals. The gala awards ceremony will be held at the San Diego Hilton Bayfront Hotel during Comic-Con on the evening of July 24.

Exquisite Corpses’ Rascal Randy Gets the Spotlight this July

Writer Tyler Boss, the scribe of Image Comics/Skybound bestselling series Universal Monsters: The Phantom of the Opera, and artist Dylan Burnett are joining forces for a new Exquisite Corpses spinoff featuring the terrifying character Rascal Randy. This five issue limited series produced by Tiny Onion reveals the origin story of the iconic bunny mascot killer and will hit shelves this July from Image Comics.

The sleepy little town of Aurora Springs, NY, has exactly one claim to fame: it’s the birthplace of Rascal Randy. Not the man in the suit—that man has never mattered. He was no one until he put the mascot head on for the first time… not until he felt the life leave someone’s body with his thickly furred gloves wrapped around them.

No, Aurora Springs is the birthplace of Rascal Randy the rabbit, who, once upon a time, was poised to become the greatest animated character this country had ever seen—until greed and tragedy changed his trajectory forever.

Witness the events before season one of Exquisite Corpses that made Rascal Randy New Jersey’s selection for America’s deadliest game. When chaos comes hopping into town, the secret sordid history of Rascal Randy will finally be revealed.

The launch issue will also feature highly collectible covers by top-tier artists such as Javier Pulido, Riley Rossmo, Brett Bean, and series artist Michael Walsh. Walsh’s variant will come polybagged with a collectible trading card tied to the soon-to-launch Exquisite Corpses: The Game, which he co-created with the Tiny Onion team; the game will be available to back on Kickstarter this May.

Exquisite Corpses: Rascal Randy #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, July 8.

  • Cover A by Burnett
  • Cover B by Boss
  • Cover C by Walsh polybag variant with collectible trading card
  • Cover D Blank Sketch
  • Cover E Secret Stealth variant
  • Cover F 1:25 copy incentive by Pulido
  • Cover G 1:50 copy incentive by Rossmo
  • Cover H 1:100 copy incentive by Bean

Universal Monsters: Phantom of the Opera #2 continues with the amazing art. Hauntingly beautiful.

Christine’s world has never been brighter…but when The Phantom of The Opera strikes again, nothing will ever be the same.
