This year’s New York Comic Con kicks off on October 5.

We recently showed you a handful of exclusive toys that Funko will be bringing to NYCC this year, including a variant “Stranger Things” action figure 3-pack and the first ever POP! vinyl toy of “The Walking Dead” character, Dwight.

Today brings more NYCC ’17 exclusive toys, this time from Skybound Entertainment.

Just shown off over on Skybound’s website, four brand new “The Walking Dead” action figures from McFarlane Toys will be selling at the Skybound booth next month.

The exclusives include an Ezekiel and Shiva 2-pack, available bloody and clean, as well as the first figure of comic book character Beta, available regular and black & white.

Ezekiel & Shiva Figure 2-Pack (Color & Bloody Versions): $50 

Are you ready for ALL OUT WAR? Skybound and McFarlane Toys are! We’re debuting this new 2-pack featuring Kingdom leader Ezekiel and his formidable tiger Shiva. This Skybound exclusive 2-pack features Ezekiel in his All Out War color scheme. Also included is his cane sword/sheath AND a chain leash for Shiva.

Beta Figure (Regular And Black & White Bloody Version): $25

Our other two new figures are of comic villain Beta, the current leader of The Whisperers. Currently, Beta is out for revenge against Negan for killing former leader Alpha. This tall 6-inch figure also includes two hunting knives.

Clive Barker

We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.

A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.

Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.

Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”

“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.

“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
