newsMasters of the Universe Comics Exclusives at NYCC 2026: Genesis Variants, a Wrap Cover and a Villains Comic
Four Masters of the Universe comics are listed as NYCC 2026 exclusives by independent exhibitors, from $20 to $25. We found no Mattel He-Man convention exclusive.
The Masters of the Universe exclusives on NYCC’s list this year are comics from independent shops and creators, and none of them comes from Mattel. We read the official exclusives page on October 4, 2026.
Which Masters of the Universe comics are NYCC 2026 exclusives?
| Item | Seller | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Masters of the Universe: Genesis #1, Skan exclusive Battle Armor action figure variant cover | East Side Comics | $25 |
| Masters of the Universe: Genesis #2, Skan exclusive Battle Armor action figure variant cover | East Side Comics | $25 |
| Masters of the Universe: Genesis #2, Bjorn Barends wrap cover | Comics Elite LLC | $20 |
| Do You Pooh? MOTU Villains NYCC exclusive comic | Sean Forney | $25 |
The two Genesis variants are covers for Masters of the Universe: Genesis, the Dark Horse origin anthology that began in August.
Is there a Mattel He-Man exclusive at NYCC 2026?
We have not found one. NYCC lets exhibitors add their own exclusives, so this list is partial and will keep growing, and the page loads with scripts our tools cannot read, so we cannot say what it lists today. Dark Horse is at booth 4451, and Mattel was not on the floor exhibitor list when we read it.
The full picture, with the Sunday Dark Horse and Mattel panel and the Super7 session on Thursday, is on the NYCC 2026 hub. We will add anything new there.
