Image Comics dropped the digital edition of She-Spawn #1 this week. Here is the official summary:
"A former solider, assassin, superhero, and mother, Priest now finds herself pulled into a brutal confrontation with an angelic cult determined to sacrifice a child in the name of their God. What begins as a mission quickly becomes something far more personal, forcing Jessica to confront the regret and responsibility that have followed her long after she stepped into the role of She-Spawn."

As Foy struggles to fend for herself, she’s granted a miracle — her father returns from the dead to protect her. Now, they embark on a sacred quest, confronting murderers, wild animals, wandering armies, and black magic plaguing the countryside. As Foy comes face to face with the dark side of miracles and the secrets of the Corpse Knight, she must question if the man by her side has always been a monster..."
Bonus: There is also a four-page preview of MASK (Mobile Armored Strike Kommand) #1 coming in June 2026. Yes, this is a reboot of the 1985 cartoon series. Here is the ad:

Image Comics released King Spawn #1 on Wednesday. There are several variant covers but I'm only going to show the first three in this post. Here is the official summary: Cover A was done by Todd McFarlane, cover B was done by Puppeteer Lee, and cover C was done by Skottie Young.
"Four years ago, Todd McFarlane launched the first large-scale expansion of the Spawn Universe with King Spawn #1. Now we are here to celebrate the success of the expanded Spawn’s Universe with King Spawn #50. An oversized issue with a story that will cross over into all three of the #50’s coming out in the coming months. (King Spawn, Gunslinger Spawn, The Scorched). An ancient force, almost as old as time itself, has returned, and Spawn is in its sights. The story, sent into two chapters per issue, will be penciled by two of the Spawn Universe’s best, Stephen Segovia and Carlo Barberi. This is the one you don’t want to miss."Universal Monsters: Frankenstein #1 from Image Comics and Skybound Entertainment was released in August while #2 hit the newsstands in September and #3 came out this month. The covers and interior artwork of all three are great with what I want to call dayglo coloration. The series is loosely based on the 1931 movie starring Boris Karloff as the monster.
Today is Free Comic Book Day and to celebrate Image Comics is offering The Walking Dead #1 (yes, the tv show is based on this comic book series) and other first issues on their website:
Scotch McTiernan's Halloween Party is a one-shot special from Image Comics that was released earlier this week. Killer clowns, vampires, demons, aliens and other creatures gather at the annual Monster Mirthapalooza in Ridgeway City, New Jersey. Scotch McTiernan, monster hunter, shows up to the horror of the monsters. Past stories are told including a spoof on E.T. the Extra Terrestrial. Things then take a turn for the worse for all the party goers. If you want some humor with your monsters, then I highly recommend picking up a copy.
