NewsMythscribe22 October 2026

Jason Aaron, Mahmud Asrar and Matthew Wilson continue the eight-part fantasy conflict.

Bug Wars: The Coming of the Wardoom #3 has reached its October 21 publication date on Image Comics’ official release list. The issue continues Jason Aaron’s miniature fantasy conflict, with art from Mahmud Asrar and Matthew Wilson. This chapter shifts danger toward the Yard as the creatures serving the Squirrel King

begin invading from the Woods. Bugs and Mytes are among their targets, with Slade Slaymaker also threatened. That escalation carries the eight-part storyline beyond its opening issues and into a direct incursion across the setting’s boundary. Image lists the issue at 32 pages with an M age rating and a US cover price

of $4.99. Asrar and Wilson provide the main cover, while Rafael Albuquerque contributes an alternate. Readers checking the sequence should look for The Coming of the Wardoom #3 of 8: this is the current continuation rather than the original Bug Wars collection. Image’s catalogue places issue two in September and

currently schedules the fourth chapter for December 16, leaving a longer interval before the next listed instalment. Official source. Image credit: Image Comics; cover by Mahmud Asrar and Matthew Wilson.
