James Tynion IV's Tiny Onion brings horror hits and a secret tease to C2E2 2026
James Tynion IV’s Tiny Onion heads to C2E2 with panels, exclusives, and a mysterious “biting” surprise.

Popverse’s coverage of C2E2 is brought to you by Signet Collectibles, the go-to place for authentic autographed items! Embrace your collecting Journey.
The gang behind James Tynion IV's Tiny Onion is on its way to Chicago for C2E2 this weekend — and we don't just mean James. Tiny Onion and its big yellow convention booth is coming to McCormick Place with exclusive signings, three panels, and a surprise sure to stoke the imprint's rabbit following.
Yes, I said 'rabbit', not 'rabid' on purpose.
“Having grown up in Wisconsin, C2E2 always feels like coming home,” Tynion says.

Joining Tynion IV all weekend at the Tiny Onion booth will be Michael Walsh (Exquisite Corpses), Martin Simmonds (The Department of Truth), Werther Dell’Edera (Something is Killing the Children), Álvaro Martínez Bueno (The Nice House series), Nick Robles, Bradley Clayton, Carola Borelli, and more.
“As we kick off Year 3 at Tiny Onion, we’re thrilled for our show to be bigger and better than ever—and with Easter right around the corner, we might even have a special furry friend in attendance. But be careful: he bites.”
Could it be... a real world appearance by one of the Exquisite Corpses' serial killers, Rascal Randy? I'd tell you, but we've been sworn to secrecy.
But totally unrelated, here are where to find Tiny Onion when not at their booth:
