The annual Halloween Extravaganza/Procession of Ghouls at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in NYC was once again equal parts awesome & terrifying. The ghouls did not disappoint and this year’s silent film was 1920’s “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.” I cannot recommend this enough. Happy Halloween!

I have a book out! 💥Star Wars Icons: Vader💥 It explores everyone who built this character, and here's where it started: George Lucas, his own father, and the family clash that shaped a galaxy. “He wanted me to go into his business,” George Jr. told me. “I said I’m absolutely not going to do it.”

September saw the release of THE DC UNIVERSE OF KEITH GIFFEN—which is a sampler of some of the brilliant work my much-missed friend and frequent creative collaborator produced for the company. I wrote an intro for the book and you can read it over at my website. www.jmdematteis.com/2026/10/cosm...

A harrowing, essential thread from a great friend, writer, and activist.

I'm a New Yorker and today is rough, especially for New Yorkers. We will relive the horrific and tragic events of 25 years ago. We will remember the lives lost then and because of then. But we will also recognize the city's hope and humanity. We are all New Yorkers today, and we will never forget.

NEW TRAILER - Hammer's 4K restoration of HORROR OF DRACULA starring Christopher Lee is coming this Halloween. Painstakingly restored in 4K from the best original archival materials, this definitive restoration includes footage believed missing for over six decades.

I was in Florida for a work thing, so I had to pay a visit to the Haunted Mansion. This attraction never—ever—disappoints. And the Florida thunderstorms were a great addition to the mood. I’m definitely going to have to “hurry baaa-aack!”

Congratulations to @adamlancegarcia.bsky.social (Iron Man), Steve Behling (Captain America Sam Wilson), and @bryanqmiller.bsky.social (Spider-Man) on the release of their Marvel Tonies! I'm so excited for kids to be listening. 📕✨

this is honestly an excellent celebratory and motivational speech from Mamdani at the Knicks parade. i'm ready to run through a wall, and i'm not even a Knicks fan

There’s a double feature of Superman and Superman II on Sundance TV tonight. 48 years later and the original is still the best Superman movie, and still the best Super Hero movie. They just don’t make ‘em like this anymore.

HISTORY.

Last day to vote for the #EisnerAwards! If you haven't voted yet, please do so today (I know, with primaries and run-offs we're all a lil burnt out about voting for anything 😆 but still :)) Here's a collage of the covers I was nominated for. Thanks again everyone for the love and consideration! ❤️❤️❤️

Out today! I penned a love letter to my favorite Star Wars character in ROGUE ONE - JYN ERSO #1, with art by Ramon Rosanas and Guru eFX. It's a story that's ten years in the making. Get your copy at your comic shop and read all about it in my newsletter: sacks-appeal.beehiiv.com/p/a-star-war...

Voting for the #eisnerawards ends this Friday. I’m up in the best cover artist category along with some very talented artists I’m honored to be in company with! Lots of dear friends and amazing creators in all categories - don’t forget to cast your votes by June 5th!

ONE MONTH until Abrams Books’ The Art of Star Wars: Andor hits store shelves on June 30! Received my author copies earlier this week. And the final cover reveals not only Tony Gilroy’s foreword, but Emmy-winning Andor screenwriter Dan Gilroy’s afterword! As expected, both are brilliant.
