‘Bug Wars’ Spin-Off One-Shot Announced
The first Bug Wars arc might have recently finished (and it was epic!), but Image Comics announced that Jason Aaron and Mahmud Asrar will be back with Bug Wars: The Spyder Wytch Special, an oversized one-shot in January 2026.
The special issue will include stories featuring characters from the Spider Sect, including Wysta the Wayward Wytch who we were introduced to in the first arc. Baldemar Rivas will join Arron and Asrar on the issue for additional art contributions.
"The wild ride through the Yard has just begun. There’s so much more about the kingdom of the Mytes that Mahmud and I are excited to explore," said Aaron. "The Spyder Wytch Special will feature various stories focused on the mysterious witches of the spider sect. After that, we’ll return to the chronicles of the Slaymaker family with Book Two. In other words, there are a lot more murderous bugs and tiny sword wielding warriors still to come."
