Paramount’s hit horror franchise Smile comes to comic books this Wednesday as IDW Publishing’s IDW Dark imprint launches Smile: For the Camera; get yourself a sneak peek at the first issue below…
Pose. Vogue. Couture. Gore. It’s Fashion Month 2005. Five young international models have just landed in New York City, ready to tackle four grueling weeks of runways, press, and cameras as they try to make it big. The girls become fast friends…until one seems to crack under the pressure. Little does everyone know that she is afflicted by the entity, a being bent on destruction and pain as it seeks to destroy lives through its horrific visions.
Dive into this never-before-seen story of betrayal and reality bending, based on the critically-acclaimed SMILE film franchise from Parker Finn, brought to you by horror star Hannah Rose May (The Exorcism at 1600 Penn, Rogues’ Gallery) and Miriana Puglia (Disney Villains: Cruella de Vil, Disney Villains: Maleficent) as we follow these models’ glamorous, gory descent into insanity. Get ready to smile like you mean it.
Smile: For the Camera #1 is out on Wednesday, February 18th 2026.
