Happy Exquisite Corpses #2 Day!
Out today: Exquisite Corpses #2, Christopher Chaos: Children of the Night #1, and the 2nd Printing of Exquisite Corpses #1!
Hola Lil’ Onions!
HAPPY EXQUISITE CORPSES #2 DAY!!!!
Today is a big day! Exquisite Corpses #2, Exquisite Corpses #1 (2nd Printing), and The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos: Children of the Night #1 are now available at your local comic shop.
The comic event of the year continues with an exciting (and disgusting) second issue, written by Michael Walsh (with James Tynion IV) and drawn by Marianna Ignazzi (with Michael Walsh)! We’re now jumping into the issue-by-issue trade-off of this experiential creation, and Michael & Marianna did a phenomenal job ramping up the horror. We also have the 2nd Printing of the sold-out Exquisite Corpses #1, with a special card found in 1:10.
We have two Corpse Tour ‘25 stops this week: one at Midtown Comics Downtown today in NYC, and the other this Friday with Austin Books and Comics in Texas. I’ve spent the morning folding tour shirts and bagging/boarding comics — I’m excited to meet some of you in just a few hours!
Exquisite Corpses #2 - Image Comics
A knife-wielding zealot covered in human skin. A heartthrob with an axe. A pint-sized sociopath with a high-powered drone. The killers are descending on Oak Valley—and the body count is rising. Series creators MICHAEL WALSH (THE SILVER COIN) and JAMES TYNION IV (W0RLDTR33) are joined by rising star MARIANNA IGNAZZI (Catwoman) to kick off the next bloody chapter in this year’s can’t-miss horror event! Each Cover C polybag variant will include one collectible trading card. Collect all 13 issues to make a complete card deck set.

The Oddly Pedestrian Life of Christopher Chaos: Children of the Night #1 - Dark Horse Comics
A new school year begins for Christopher Chaos and his friends as he finds himself divided from his mentor, Adam Frankenstein, and searching for answers outside of any textbook. But when a dangerous new monster arrives in New Briar City with a mysterious hunter on his trail, a strange case develops that only Christopher can solve! Will the Monster Club survive their latest foe or will they be torn apart—piece by bloody piece?
This issue introduces the Chaosverse's Dr. Henry Jekyll, and a brand-new monster hunter known only as Helbound!
Each issue features a special 8-page flip-book backup “Monsters in Love” story in the vein of EC Comics — don’t miss it!

Can you clarify if the corpse tour “event” cards are only available on the corpse tour? Or will they be included with the Kickstarter?
Is the card found in some of the second printing issues of Exquisite Corpses #1 the same card found in the polybag version of the first printing? I'm trying to collect them all!
