It’s the week before SDCC 2024 here at Skybound HQ, and it’s hard to imagine things getting any more exciting — with the launches of new video and tabletop games, comics, collectibles, and Audible’s Impact Winter Season 3! Read on for everything that happened the week of July 15-19, 2024 in all things Skybound…
Transformers
Artist Jorge Corona continues to kill it in the pages of Transformers. Just look at the gallery of pages and covers from Transformers #11 with which we kicked off this week!
Sea Serpent’s Heir Book Three
For another gallery of jaw-dropping comic art, check out Pablo Tunica’s pages from Sea Serpent’s Heir Book Three: Queen of Mercy. The concluding volume of this YA fantasy trilogy Fromm Skybound Comet lands on September 17th!
G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero
Artist Chris Mooneyham rejoins writer Larry Hama in the pages of G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero, and we looked at G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #311’s variant covers, including gorgeous art from Andy Kubert and Francis Portela.
New Comics
This week’s new comic arrivals included Skybound’s Destro #2, the above G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #308, a second printing (and new variant covers) for Scarlett #1, and The Walking Dead Deluxe #93.
Impact Winter Season 3
Of course the biggest news of this week was the premiere of Impact Winter Season 3 — with new cast members and a bold new action-packed storyline that begins six months after Season 2 of this smash hit Audible series!
Universal Monsters: Frankenstein
Because we like it dark, we can’t wait for next month’s debut of Universal Monsters: Frankenstein. Even more so after seeing Francesco Francavilla’s set of connecting covers for writer-artist Michael Walsh’s horror series!
Creepshow Vol. 3
Hey, speaking of Skybound horror… Did you know October’s Creepshow Vol. 3 #2 will feature tales by acclaimed filmmaker Eugenio Mira (Grand Piano) and Academy Award-winning writer John Ridley (12 Years a Slave), along with art by fan favorites Jorge Fornés and Stefano Raffaele? Check out the details as well as Creepshow Vol. 3 #2’s covers here.

After next week’s nerd prom, aka SDCC 2024, Skybound heads to GenCon 2024, the nation’s biggest tabletop gaming convention. We’ll preview four exciting new games only for GenCon attendees!
Closer the Distance
In other game-related news, slice-of-life simulator Closer the Distance arrives in just two short weeks. So we sat down for a video interview with the Closer the Distance developers at Osmotic Studios!
SDCC 2024 Exclusives
With San Diego Comic-Con 2024 in just a few days, we’re taking a closer look at some of the exclusives we’ll be offering during the show. Including Wave 3 of the Invincible Slab Cards (pictured above), The Walking Dead Deluxe #89 variant covers, and artist Jason Edmiston’s “Eyes Without a Face” Invincible print set!
