The Beauty: New Strains

The comic that inspired the FX and Hulu series returns with a fresh cast. In a world much like ours, a sexually transmitted disease is spreading that people actively seek out, because it transforms anyone infected into a flawless, more attractive version of themselves. The side effects are a mild fever and, in time, certain death.

This new run follows a hired thief on a risky job, a TV meteorologist desperate to save his career, and federal agents who investigate Beauty-related crimes, as their separate paths start to collide. Created by Jeremy Haun and Jason A. Hurley with art by Emanuela Lupacchino. Collects The Beauty (2025) #1-5.
