STOW 3 is Approaching
The countdown is on—STOW 3: Return of the Squad is almost here! From September 12–14, 2025, Cowabunga Comics will once again become the hub for one of the most unique comic community events of the year.
A Lineup You Don’t Want to Miss
This year’s roster of artists is stacked with talent. Fans will get the chance to meet:
-
NATWA – known for bold, eye-catching lines and unique interpretations of pop culture icons.
-
Kyle Willis – painter, creator, and convention favorite, bringing his signature style to covers and commissions.
-
RZP – master of mash-ups and dynamic portraits, with pieces that jump off the page.
-
Görkem Demir – international powerhouse with a style that blends detail, drama, and a dark edge.

With so much creative energy in one room, the possibilities for exclusive art, sketches, and one-of-a-kind keepsakes are endless.
Blank Covers: Your Personal Canvas
Bring your blank variant covers and get ready to walk away with something truly special. Whether it’s a quick sketch or a fully fleshed-out commission, our guest artists will be on-site creating pieces that exist nowhere else. If you’ve ever wanted a favorite character drawn in a fresh, personal way, this is your chance.
Jam Pieces: Collaboration in Action
One of the most exciting traditions of STOW is the chance to commission jam pieces—artworks where multiple artists contribute to a single cover. Watching styles blend together on the same page is a thrill, and the final product is a true collector’s gem. Imagine NATWA starting a figure, Kyle Willis adding paint flourishes, and Görkem Demir finishing it with dramatic shading. These are once-in-a-lifetime items you’ll only find at STOW.

Beyond the Art
Of course, STOW 3 isn’t just about sketches and commissions. Expect exclusive covers, prints, and merch dropping all weekend long. Plus, with streamers and guests coming in from across the community, there will be plenty of chances to connect, trade stories, and celebrate the comics we all love.
