Something Is Killing the Children #50 Brings Erica Slaughter Back With a Surprise Trading Card
BOOM! Studios is celebrating the 50th issue of Something Is Killing the Children with a special blind bag variant that includes an exclusive trading card. This collectible serves as the first official teaser for an upcoming tabletop game set in the Slaughterverse.

The milestone issue, arriving October 7, 2026, follows Erica Slaughter's return to the present day after the intense Tribulation saga. Each Cover C blind bag contains a guaranteed trading card linked to a future tabletop project, signaling the expansion of the series beyond monthly comics. While the collectible aspect offers a chase for fans, the story remains focused on Erica's emotional journey as she returns to the Valmont Mountain Lodge. This release marks a significant expansion for the franchise created by James Tynion IV and Werther Dell’Edera.
