It’s hard to imagine someone more suited for those themes than Will Byers, and his perspective comes to the forefront and has fascinating ripple effects on the other characters. Much like Runaway Max, Stranger Things: Rebel Robin takes a deeper dive into a newly introduced member of the core Stranger Things cast after her debuted season. The timeline is a little confusing since supposedly this takes place after the battle with the Mind Flayer but since Bob dies in season 2 (RIP), it makes more sense to read it here. Similar to Eleven, he has the power of remote viewing and is able to see outside his present location.

As a Soviet double agent breaks his cover to help a leading scientist's two children escape from the KGB, he takes a journey into his past to make amends for his biggest regret.

With the Hawkins National Laboratory having just been completed, and with Brenner having just arrived with test subject Eight in tow, the stage is set for the recruitment of Terry Ives, Eleven’s mother, and a haphazard crew of other Hawkins Lab kid experiments – the individuals who will first discover the Void (the telepathic area that exists between our world and the Mind Flayer’s) and get glimpses of the Upside Down and the Demogorgons that reside there. The series has taken its time introducing test subjects besides Eleven, with the latest season adding in Two and Ten. Follow Will Byers into a dimension of decay and destruction where he must use his wits and resolve to dodge the pursuit of the Demogorgon and escape the Upside Down.

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts amazed fans by announcing a crossover with another Hasbro property, G. Taking Houser's suggestion, colorist Lauren Affe designed the book in the style of '80s comics while adding brighter tones to give a retro feel. Outside of the comics, books and the show, there is some other media to enjoy within the Stranger Things franchise, including a short story collection, games and reference books that go behind-the-scenes of the series.
