Fall is in the air, bringing a crisp step and the crunch of leaves under foot, and the inevitable—perhaps inescapable—presence of Pumpkin Spice everything all around us! Yes, it's time for 31 Days of Halloween, The Beat's annual tribute to our MOST FAVORITEST TIME OF YEAR. And let's get things going with probably the most obvious link possible...but I have ever written about painter/cartoonist/musician Menton3 on The Beat before so here goes!
Based in Chicago, Menton3—aka Menton J Matthews III—is a painter of atmospheric and disturbing images. While you can find a lot of his work at his website, he's probably best known these days as a partner in 44Flood, a publishing company that has teamed with IDW to put out art books and comics. Along with fellow artists Kasra Ghanbari, Ben Templesmith and Nick Idell, 44Flood has put out Tome, an artbook which was mostly Kickstarted, Templesmith's The Squidder, the comic Monocyte, which you see on this page, and Libretto, an anthology of eerieness centering on vampirism. A new volume of Tome is on its way or already here (I couldn't find a lot of solid news about the bunch.)
The first trailer for Criminal, the Prime Video series based on the comic by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips, starring Charlie Hunnam, Adria Arjona, Emilia Clarke, and more, has revealed it will be released in two halves in January 2027.
During NYCC, Neckwav, the singing voice of Abby in the film, and Emmy-nominated actor/producer and talent manager and producer Rich Ting shared their thoughts and insights on the hit animated film
Writer Dustin Brady and artist Dave Bardin will adapt Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots into a junior graphic novel series, debuting from Mattel Press in Summer 2027.
