Does Oni have their holidays mixed up, or are most of their December offerings more suited for Halloween? Prepare yourself for a spine-tingling Christmas with these ghoulish offerings….
Cullen Bunn is back with a new tale, perhaps his most gruesome yet….INVASIVE! Some kind of underground surgeons are operating beneath the city, performing sick experiments of body horror on random victims. One of them happens to be the daughter of gifted trauma surgeon Dr. Carrie Reynolds, and she aims to get to the bottom of this. The first issue of INVASIVE will be released December 6.
And speaking of gruesome things, Jay Stephens wraps up DWELLINGS this month with the third and final issue. He’s not telling us what scares await inside; he only gives one hint….CLOWNS! This Harvey Knockoff From Hell releases its last chapter December 20.
What do you get with a Rick In A Box? We’re not sure, but it has something to do with hair. While Rick and Morty are recovering from their latest incident (along with the rest of the world), Jerry winds up creating a new one when he uses Rick’s experimental shampoo and winds up creating an army of murderous dolls made of hair! Time for Rick to get out of the box and fix this. The first issue will be released December 13.
Also, there’s something called “Mika And The Gurgler.” Enjoy that. Oni’s full list of December releases is posted below.
Beyond excess, beyond ethics, beyond science. . . Enter a terrifying new experiment in pain from Eisner Award nominee Cullen Bunn (The Sixth Gun, Basilisk) and acclaimed illustrator Jesús Hervás (The Empty Man)!
Dr. Carrie Reynolds was a veteran trauma surgeon with a godlike mastery of muscle and bone. But outside the operating room, her rigidly ordered life spiraled into chaos when her daughter, Heather, a recovering plastic surgery addict, suddenly disappeared, only to mysteriously reemerge in a catatonic state, her vocal cords removed . . . the latest in a series of victims scarred by a battery of brazenly cruel medical procedures that have baffled police and left an alarming number of once-ordinary citizens maimed, mutilated, or dead on arrival.
Deep beneath the streets of Carrie’s city, a new kind of underground hospital has just opened its doors . . . and, once inside, there are no rules, no oaths, and no taboos too deep to not to be broken. Together, a new class of surgeon has sworn to pierce the final threshold of accepted medical orthodoxy one incision at a time.
The scalpel is their tool. The alleys are their operating theater. Murder is their medicine. And only Carrie can stop what they’re planning next . . .
The must-read experience in visionary comics storytelling continues! From the distorted imagination of Eisner nominated writer and artist Matt Lesniewski (Mind MGMT Bootleg) comes the next epic chapter of this soon-to-be graphic classic!
On a quest to reclaim the face he sacrificed to a troubled past, the man called Faceless and his new band of friends and followers are on a quest to the Hand Planet’s most notorious metropolis: Pinky Town!
(It’s not our fault you haven’t heard of it yet!)!
The sold-out horror hit of 2023 returns to the scene of the crime for one FINAL scare!
Welcome back to Elwich, where murderous and horrifying secrets sleep just below the pristine surface, slithering in the shadows of this otherwise quiet and idyllic small town.
The cute-creepy mashup from Emmy Award–winning, Eisner Award–nominated cartoonist and animator Jay Stephens (Secret Saturdays, Jetcat Clubhouse) returns from the grave for two more tales of small-town horror. Readers with coulrophobia beware: in this issue, creepy clowns are quite the scare! See for yourself the shock, terror, and fun that is . . . Dwellings!
The Man From Maybe and his compadres have tracked the world-ending threat, Heart of the Purple Claw, to a cesspool that passes for a city: the Skinless Citadel. Filled with the worst that humanity has to offer, it’s enough to make a Dino-Naut blush!
Surrounded on all sides by infected reavers and scavengers, with billionaire madman Harvard Denny bearing down on them in his own twisted version of the Enola Gay, our heroes do their best to stay alive in an increasingly inhospitable environment. It’s carpet bombs galore as the whole insane adventure gets blown SKY HIGH!
A city doomed, A HARDCOVER INCARNATE!
Collecting Season 5 #1–6 and Season 6 #1–6, this complete, annotated edition spans the vast physical, temporal, and socioeconomic distances between the corrupt Kaijumax prison, the impartial halls of cosmic justice, and the burning skies of a three-pronged alien invasion.

As days turn into weeks, the world begins to recover from the chaotic influence of Rick Sanchez, until Jerry f**ks it all up by using Rick’s special shampoo and releasing a horde of nanobot-infused hair dolls, yep, hair dolls, on an unsuspecting populace.
The madcap world of Rick and Morty™ relaunches with a brand-new volume perfect for new and old fans alike!
