Reigning Phoenix Music, in partnership with Hasbro, is bringing Cold Slither to San Diego Comic-Con 2025 for their first official in-person signing, plus exclusives and more. The fictional band-turned-real-world metal act — originally introduced in the 1985 animated series G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero — will appear at the Stern Pinball/Reigning Phoenix Music Booth #4029 on Friday, July 25 from 12pm-1:30pm.
The signing celebrates the band’s reintroduction to the spotlight with a lineup of heavy-hitting metal veterans: Gus Rios (as Zartan), Matt Harvey (Ripper), Ross Sewage (Torch), and Andy Selway (Buzzer). Their newest single, “Thunder Machine,” is now streaming on all major platforms.
[UPDATE July 18]
Reigning Phoenix Music is bringing a San Diego Comic-Con exclusive variant of Sister Imperator #1, created with Dark Horse Comics and Ghost’s Tobias Forge. The issue explores the mysterious origins of one of Ghost’s most iconic figures.
Also available: an exclusive Ghost: The Haunting T-shirt, only at Booth #4029. A separate variant will be at Dark Horse (Booth #2615), but this cover and shirt are limited to Reigning Phoenix Music.
