This oversized special sees her finally confronting Athena as she seeks justice and personal redemption in a visually spectacular mythological epic.

Bleeding Hearts #1 Set a decade after a zombie apocalypse where the undead have established their own dominant society, language, and culture. The story follows a zombie named "Poke," a beloved member of his community whose life is thrown into chaos when his heart mysteriously begins beating again, causing him to see humans as friends rather than food.

The Center Holds #1 In a world where superheroes are commonplace, the law requires them to join a union to manage financial liability for collateral damage. This giant-sized debut features the Superheroes' Union—including the genius Scyber and the mysterious Keeper—as they navigate the delicate balance of saving lives while battling both rising villains and crushing bureaucracy.

The Crown: A Tale of Hell #1 This two-issue Hellboy prequel focuses on Hellboy’s demonic family.

Cyclops #1 Scott Summers finds himself in a harrowing fight for survival after being separated from the X-Men. Lost in a mountain wilderness without the visor that keeps his devastating optic blasts in check, he must evade the cybernetic Reavers and their leader, Donald Pierce.

Good Bones and Other Sordid Tales #1 This horror one-shot, curated from the Hello Darkness anthology, features a collection of "grimy, gritty, and gory" stories. The lead tale, Good Bones, explores a house of forbidden love that harbours a grudge as powerful and dangerous as any supernatural entity.

The Thing on the Doorstep #1 A chilling adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft’s classic story.

Tortured Hearts #1 In the tradition of classic EC Comics, this 56-page special delivers "soft whispers and death rattles" for the romantically inclined. It includes multiple tales of terror, such as A Pocket Full of Nails, which is inspired by a true story of a stalker targeting female comic creators.
