One of Netflix’s biggest fantasy films is making an epic comeback ahead of its upcoming sequel. This movie not only broke many records, but also became Netflix’s most-streamed movie of all time, and a world tour is in the works following its success. Now, the title is making an appearance once more through a new merch line.
Following KPop Demon Hunters‘ success since its streaming debut, the franchise has found many ways to milk its popularity. The first was a series of Funko Pop figures released this year. Following that were Mattel dolls and official Netflix merch on the Netflix site, including lightsticks. Later this year, LEGO will release its KPop Demon Hunter set featuring Derpy Tiger and Sussie Bird. And it’s not just toys that KPop Demon Hunters is expanding its presence towards.
Penguin Random House has announced that it will be releasing a comic book set titled KPop Demon Hunters: The Official Screen Comic Boxed Set. Scheduled to come out before the end of the year, this 704-page box set was described as the “ultimate collector’s item” for KPop Demon Hunters fans for a listed price of $60. This set will transform the 95-minute feature into a comic book. The set will also feature lyrics from the full soundtrack (including “Hunter’s Mantra” and “Jinu’s Lament,” tracks from the film that were only included in the soundtrack’s deluxe version), two foldout posters of HUNTR/X and the Saja Boys, holographic foil slipcase, two paperback volumes with French flaps, two unique foil-stamped book covers, and a unified spine design showing Rumi’s two sides.

The Academy Has Decided Your Perfect Film Is…
Your answers have pointed to one Oscar Best Picture winner above all others. This is the film that was made for the way your mind works.
Parasite
You are drawn to films that operate on multiple levels simultaneously — that begin in one genre and quietly, brilliantly migrate into another. Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite is a film about class, desire, and the architecture of inequality that manages to be darkly funny, deeply suspenseful, and genuinely shocking across a single extraordinary running time. Your instinct is for cinema that hides its true intentions until the moment it’s ready to reveal them. Parasite is exactly that — a film that rewards close attention and punishes assumptions, right up to its devastating final image.
Everything Everywhere All at Once
You want it all — and this film gives you all of it. The Daniels’ Everything Everywhere All at Once is one of the most maximalist films ever made: action comedy, multiverse sci-fi, family drama, existential crisis, and a genuinely earned emotional core that sneaks up on you amid the chaos. You are someone who responds to ambition, who doesn’t want cinema to choose between being entertaining and being meaningful. This film refuses that choice entirely. It is overwhelming by design, and its overwhelming nature is precisely the point — because the feeling of being crushed by infinite possibility is exactly what it’s about.
Oppenheimer
You are drawn to cinema on a grand scale — films that understand history not as a backdrop but as a force, and that place their characters inside that force and watch what happens. Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer is a film about the terrifying gap between what we can do and what we should do, told with the full weight of one of the most consequential moments in human history behind it. You want your films to feel important without feeling self-important — to earn their ambition through sheer craft and the gravity of their subject. Oppenheimer does exactly that. It is enormous, complicated, and refuses easy comfort.
Birdman
You are drawn to films that foreground their own construction — that make the how of the filmmaking part of the what it’s about. Alejandro González Iñárritu’s Birdman, shot to appear as a single continuous take, is cinema examining itself through the cracked mirror of a fading actor’s ego. You respond to formal daring, to the feeling that a film is doing something that probably shouldn’t be possible. Michael Keaton’s performance and Emmanuel Lubezki’s restless camera create something genuinely unlike anything else — a film that is simultaneously about creativity, relevance, self-destruction, and the impossibility of ever truly knowing if your work means anything at all.
No Country for Old Men
You are drawn to cinema that trusts silence, that refuses to explain itself, and that treats dread as a form of meaning. The Coen Brothers’ No Country for Old Men is a film about the arrival of a new kind of evil — implacable, arbitrary, and utterly indifferent to the moral frameworks we use to make sense of the world. It is one of the most formally controlled films ever made, and its controlled restraint is what makes it so terrifying. You want your films to haunt you, not comfort you. You are not interested in resolution if resolution would be dishonest. No Country for Old Men is honest in a way that most cinema never dares to be.
‘KPop Demon Hunters’ Achieves a New Netflix Record
KPop Demon Hunters is an animated film that follows an all-female K-pop idol group called HUNTR/X, which consist of Rumi (Arden Cho/Ejae), Mira (May Hong/Audrey Nuna), and Zoey (Ji-young Yoo/Rei Ami), who are secretly demon hunters, and their singing voices create a magical barrier called the Honmoon, which prevents demons from entering the human world to steal souls. To combat them, the Demon King, Gwi-Ma (Lee Byung-hun), agrees to follow Jinu’s (Ahn Hyo-seop/Andrew Choi) plan to form a Demon boy band called the Saja Boys and use the fans against the demon hunters.
Since its release, KPop Demon Hunters has become a viral success, earning major awards and numerous streaming numbers for both the film and the soundtrack. A year has passed, and Netflix has revealed that KPop Demon Hunters has set a record first on the platform, becoming the first film to enter the official Top 10 Movie charts worldwide for an entire year. Additionally, especially now that a sequel has been greenlit, KPop Demon Hunters has begun its first step to maintain its place for a second year in a row. Whether that 2-year streak can be achieved is something only time will tell.
KPop Demon Hunters: The Official Screen Comic Boxed Set will be released on November 3, 2026. In the meantime, KPop Demon Hunters is available to stream on Netflix. Follow Collider for more updates.
