AMC Global Media took over the Main Stage at New York Comic Con on October 9, and the headline news is a calendar: premiere dates for two returning favorites, a debut date for a new witchy series, and a first look at a new revenge thriller headlined by an Oscar winner.

YAGA premieres Friday, October 23 on AMC+. The new series — a Crave Original — comes from showrunner Kat Sandler, with Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix, Memento) starring and executive-producing alongside Mackenzie Donaldson. The NYCC panel, moderated by Damian Holbrook, previewed new scenes from the series, and AMC shared two exclusive preview clips out of the panel.

Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches: Salem Coven (Season 3) premieres Wednesday, December 30. Alexandra Daddario leads a panel lineup that included Harry Hamlin, Tongayi Chirisa, Betsy Brandt, and Eliza Scanlen, with co-showrunners Esta Spalding and Tom Schnauz and executive producer Mark Johnson previewing the season and debuting a first look. The third season takes the Rowan Fielding story to Salem — the subtitle is doing real work this year.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon returns in February for its fourth and final season. Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride joined showrunner David Zabel and executive producer Scott M. Gimple to preview the end of the road, with never-before-seen footage and a panel framed as a celebration of Daryl and Carol’s 15-year journey. One more ride, then the book closes.

And the whole Walking Dead saga lands on AMC+ on January 7. Announced from the same stage: all 11 seasons of The Walking Dead — all 177 episodes — join AMC+’s Walking Dead Universe collection alongside the six spin-offs, 371 episodes in total, plus specials and bonus content. Scott M. Gimple broke the news during the Daryl Dixon panel — fitting, since Daryl and Carol’s final season arrives in February to close the book.

Kill Jackie rounded out the Main Stage takeover. The AMC+ revenge thriller stars Catherine Zeta-Jones (Chicago, Wednesday), with showrunner Tom Butterworth and executive producer Peter Lawson discussing the making of the series with moderator Perri Nemiroff, plus exclusive clips and a sneak peek at Episode 103. No premiere date has been announced yet — we’ll be watching for one.

Four panels, three dates on the calendar, and one very full winter for AMC+ subscribers.
