For fans who couldn't get enough of Eddie Munson's brief but unforgettable run in Stranger Things, there's good news: his story isn't over. Netflix has officially expanded the character's arc through a comic book series that lets readers step into the shoes of the Hellfire Club and play through the Dungeons & Dragons campaign Eddie never got to finish.
The series, titled Stranger Things x Dungeons and Dragons: The Rise of Hellfire, was released in single issues over the past year and has now been collected into a trade paperback that hit shelves on September 30. The collection is currently available on Amazon for just $15, making it an easy pick-up for both longtime fans and newcomers to the franchise.
Set during the events of the show's fourth season, the comic follows Lucas, Dustin, and Mike as they team up with Eddie and the rest of the Hellfire Club for a fantasy-fueled adventure that blends the real-world stakes of Hawkins with the imaginative realms of D&D. It's a chance to see Eddie in action again, leading his crew through a campaign that feels both nostalgic and fresh.
The decision to bring Eddie back in comic form speaks to the character's enduring popularity. Played by Joseph Quinn, who has since moved on to bigger roles like Johnny Storm in The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Eddie was introduced in Season 4 and quickly became a fan favorite. His tragic fate didn't sit well with viewers, and this comic offers a way to keep his spirit alive.
This isn't the only Stranger Things spin-off on the horizon. Earlier this year, Netflix launched Tales From '85, an animated series set between Seasons 2 and 3. While that show received mixed reviews, it still performed well on streaming charts. Netflix has already confirmed more episodes are coming before the end of 2026, so the universe is clearly expanding in multiple directions.
Meanwhile, the streaming giant has been busy with other sci-fi projects. The big-budget War Machine, starring Alan Ritchson, broke into Netflix's all-time top 10 and has a sequel in the works. On the flip side, The Boroughs, a series produced by the Duffer Brothers, was canceled despite strong viewership due to high production costs. It seems Stranger Things remains the crown jewel of their sci-fi empire.
For those who want to dive deeper into the world of Hawkins, all five seasons of Stranger Things are available on Netflix.
