Captain Ginger is returning from Stuart Moore, June Brigman and Roy Richardson in a new two-shot from Ahoy Comics, The Last Feeder, in their November 2023 solicits and solicitations, as well as the final issue of Con & On from Paul Cornell and Marika Cresta, and the latest Project Crpytid #3 by Bryce Ingman, Paul Constant and Peter Krause.

Back for a two-issue AHOY anniversary special: the "wonderfully entertaining series, combining all the tropes and trappings of serious sci-fi with the ridiculousness of cats being cats" (Comics Beat)! In this all-new epic, Captain Ginger and his crew find themselves scattered across a thousand light-years, facing the twin mysteries of the Captain's long-missing father—and the final fate of the human race. By Stuart Moore (Marvel Crisis Protocol) and June Brigman (Power Pack), with a galactic variant cover by Walter Simonson (Thor, Ragnarok)! Issue #1 also features a new installment of the AHOY fifth anniversary prose serial by Alex Segura (Secret Identity).

LAST ISSUE! The "profoundly well-observed waltz through the heart, soul and timeline of a comic convention" (Si Spurrier) concludes in the pandemic year 2022. Deja Drummond accepts a prestigious cartooning award and reflects on the often-painful path that brought her success, while her ex-friend Eddie finds a new level of self-awareness in the ashes of a spent comics career.
