Oni Press spends September tending other publishers’ history. Archie #1 opens a new ongoing series and starts a countdown to the character’s 85th anniversary. Two curated collections ship beside it. The EC line closes Catacomb of Torment, relaunches Cruel Kingdom, and reprints its Eisner-nominated revival at treasury size.
That puts two older publishers’ catalogs, Archie Comics and EC Comics, at the center of one Oni month. The creator-owned side answers with a Christian Ward launch and a Matt Kindt double bill.
The Countdown to 85 Starts in Riverdale
Ben H. Winters writes and Fábio Moon draws the new Archie ongoing. Oni calls it “the milestone comics publishing event of the year.” The story sends Archie through Riverdale’s past, present, and future. It starts at a local film festival and a paradox only Jughead Jones can unravel. Twelve covers ship with the first issue, two foils and a 1:250 black-and-white among them.
The launch arrives flanked by history. Tom King, screenwriter of the upcoming Archie film, joins Dan Parent to curate Archie: The Decision & Other Stories. Their own answer to the Betty-or-Veronica question opens the book. Archie: New Riverdale Compact Edition reprints the 2015 Mark Waid and Fiona Staples relaunch and starts a new compact line.
EC Swaps One Torturer for Another
Catacomb of Torment #15 closes the anthology with a 40-page finale. The solicitation is upfront that the Tormentor “won’t be gone for long,” and the hosts are already teasing “a new legend of lethality” to follow. James Robinson joins Jordan Clark, Jude Ellison S. Doyle, and Sina Grace for the send-off.
Cruel Kingdom 2 #1 restarts the fantasy anthology. David M. Booher, Matt Bors, and Doyle write; Ryan Kelly, Lukas Ketner, and David Lapham draw. The first EC Comics Treasury of Terror reprints stories from across the revival’s titles at 10″ x 14″. Lapham draws in all three EC books this month; Doyle writes in two.
Nobody Gets Out
Three creator-owned books lock their casts inside something. In The Forever Home #1, writer Christian Ward and artist Sami Kivelä seal the D’mour family into a luxury ark. Twenty minutes pass inside for every year outside, until something out there wants back in. Fort Psycho #2 keeps Jason in an island prison of former agents, hunting the Seven Seals’ hidden leader. Super Mondo Mega Mutts #3 opens with the Mutts held for “test research” in a Grey Cube Corporation facility.
Matt Kindt writes Fort Psycho and writes and draws Mind MGMT: New & Improved #4. In the second book, Swon learns Mind Management itself may be the root of his missing memories. Faceless and the Family: Maze of the Mechanical Aliens #3 stays with the aftermath: Sasha fights for her life; Carp turns to the alien mech suit.
Holidays Arrive Two Months Early
Adventure Time gets its first Halloween special from Jeremy Melloul and Adam Seats. In the 48-page one-shot, a fine-print guild quest turns Finn and Jake into the dungeon’s monsters. Yuletide: Curse of the Winter Witch ships the same month. The holiday horror adventure takes place in Christmas, Pennsylvania, and claims The Goonies and Hocus Pocus as its tradition.
BMO gets the spotlight chapter of Adventure Time: Quadruple Feature #3. The Marceline-centered Adventure Time Compendium Vol. 4 arrives in softcover alongside a comic-shop-exclusive hardcover. Biker Mice from Mars: Scorch #2 pushes Scratch further toward becoming Scorch. The Planet of the Apes RPG Solo Rulebook brings single-player rules to the tabletop line.
The Bookshelf Half
The month’s graphic novels share nothing but a shelf. A Ghost Arm Made of Angry Ghosts sets conspiracy and faded superheroics in the ’90s Washington, D.C., punk scene. Animation director Jonathan Djob Nkondo’s Peaceful Remission watches an elderly couple’s marriage strain inside a satellite home. Freaks’ Squeele Vol. 4 continues Florent Maudoux’s hero-college series. Ileana Surducan’s Eisner-nominated The Lost Sunday arrives in softcover, a folk tale of a girl stealing Sunday back from a witch.

From comics superstar Christian Ward (Event Horizon: Dark Descent, Batman: City of Madness) and visionary artist Sami Kivelä (Abbott), prepare to challenge the limits of time, technology, and human endurance itself as one family’s refuge from the end of the world becomes a mind-bending nightmare reaching far beyond the future.

To survive and to strike back, she’ll have to shed her past and forge a new identity: Scorch! But revenge comes at a cost. With her sights set on both her mother, the iron-fisted Governor Slicks and the friends who left her behind, Scratch is ready to burn it all down. The only question is: When the dust settles, will anything be left of the mouse she once was?

From writer and colorist extraordinaire Oliver Mertz (The Monuments, First Law of Mad Science) and acclaimed artist Alex Diotto (Youth, Indigo Children) comes a weird tale of conspiracy, faded superheroics, and suburban angst in ’90s Washington, D.C.
Sixteen-year-old Ari Ackerman just witnessed a murder. Or two. Or maybe he didn’t. He’s not quite sure. What he does know is that he loves the Washington, D.C., punk scene and is trying very hard to process the perpetual impending death (and frequent resurrections) of his cancer-stricken father. Ari’s best friend, Maya Meng, just wants to hang out and go see Jawbox play at the Black Cat. But sadly, an escalating series of unexplained deaths can really ruin a perfectly good day.
For readers who like What’s the Furthest Place from Here?, Love and Rockets, David Lynch, Daniel Clowes, Seinfeld, Agatha Christie, Powers, Fugazi, and Wes Anderson, A Ghost Arm Made of Angry Ghosts is sure to evoke all the feelings that come with being an outsider, making sense of the world around you, and finding your place in it.

PEACEFUL REMISSION HC | Oni Press September 2026 Solicitations
- WRITTEN/ART/COVER BY JONATHAN DJOB NKONDO
Animation director Jonathan Djob Nkondo (Scavenger’s Reign, Gorillaz) tells a melancholy tale of life in a space-faring future. Set in a sleek satellite home orbiting Earth, Peaceful Remission follows elderly couple Marlène and Jerry Nomo, whose quiet life is disrupted by a mysterious nighttime rumble. But the real tension lies not in the noise but in Marlène’s simmering frustration with Jerry’s passivity. The incident becomes a catalyst for emotional confrontation, revealing the cracks in their long-standing relationship. When Jerry’s obsession with a recent discovery leaves Marlene responsible for his health and well-being, their seemingly ordinary tasks, shopping, driving, caregiving, are refracted through a surreal, futuristic lens, emphasizing the emotional weight of routine and the quiet heroism of unspoken love.
Encapsulating themes of conjugal fatigue, silent devotion, and the illusion of tranquility, this surreal, contemplative work is told through clean, futuristic interiors contrasted with intimate character framing. In this fragmented yet lyrical tale that alternates between dialogue and silent observation, Jonathan Nkondo uses the sterile calm of space as a metaphor for emotional distance, crafting a story that feels both timeless and eerily current.
