See more sides of the story with The Legend of Vox Machina: The Whitestone Chronicles Volume 2 — Cassandra

Posted on by

Dark Horse Books, Critical Role, and Amazon MGM Studios have revealed the second volume in the hit Whitestone Chronicles series, The Legend of Vox Machina: The Whitestone Chronicles Volume 2—Cassandra. This second graphic novel is written by Marieke Nijkamp, with art by Travis Hymel, colors by Diana Sousa, and letters by Comicraft. 

Critically injured and seemingly abandoned by her brother after the murder of her family, Cassandra de Rolo finds herself at the mercy of Whitestone’s usurpers. Much to her shock, Delilah and Sylas Briarwood treat her with the utmost care—almost like a daughter—as she recovers within the relative safety of her own childhood bedroom. On edge and suspicious of their motives, Cassandra adapts to survive while processing the trauma of her family’s demise and Percy’s abandonment.

The Briarwoods delight in parading Cassandra around the city in an attempt to convince the despairing populace of their benevolence. Instead of becoming their paragon of obedience, Cassandra unwittingly becomes the guiding light of the rebellion attempting to rescue Whitestone, particularly in the eyes of her childhood friend and rebel leader, Archie. Cassandra vows to do whatever she can to help her beloved home, but are the ghosts of her past powerful enough to overcome the ghosts in her present, or will the Briarwoods’ brainwashing drown out all reason?

The Legend of Vox Machina: The Whitestone Chronicles Volume 2—Cassandra (80 pages, 6.625” x 10.1875”, hardcover) arrives in bookstores and comic shops on March 10 and 11, 2026. It is now available for pre-order at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and your local comic shop and bookstore for $19.99.

The Definitive Collection of Barb Wire arrives in 2026

Posted on by

From series creator Chris Warner, Team Comics’ Greatest World, and Dark Horse Books comes the ultimate collection of Barb Wire comics: The Barb Wire Compendium. Arriving in stores February 2026, fans can revisit the classic series starting from the beginning in her first appearance in 1993’s Comics’ Greatest World in this new, comprehensive volume collecting every main line Barb Wire comic and a bounty of bonus material.

Bursting at the seams with a gang of the comic book industry’s greatest talent, this collection includes the work of writer/artist Chris Warner along with John Arcudi, Adam Hughes, Patrick Olliffe, Paul Gulacy, Tim Bradstreet, Dan Lawlis, Mike Manley, Adam Warren, Dave Dorman, Mike Mignola, Andrew Robinson, and more! 

Steel Harbor is the American dream turned nightmare. This once great city was a monument to American industry and ingenuity; now, it’s a scrap heap of shuttered factories, decaying neighborhoods, and wasted potential being carved up and fought over by superpowered street gangs. 

But where others see a warzone, Barb sees opportunity. When a bounty can punch through a wall, summon a tornado, or fly, they tend to have a big fat price on their head, which is just what Barb needs if she’s going to keep her money-pit hard rock bar from being shuttered. The trick is staying alive long enough to collect. 

This collection features cover art by Hughes and contains Comics’ Greatest World: Steel Harbor Week 1: Barb Wire, Comics’ Greatest World: Steel Harbor Week 2: The Machine, Comics’ Greatest World: Steel Harbor Week 3: Wolf Gang, Comics’ Greatest World: Steel Harbor Week 4: Motorhead, Barb Wire #1-9, San Diego Comic-Con Comics #3: Barb Wire: No Fear, Barb Wire: Ace of Spades #1-4, Barb Wire (Volume 2) #1-8, and, as a bonus, Chris Warner’s original character designs and redesigns for the series, and the movie adaptation comic Barb Wire Movie Special.

This is the biggest and baddest Barb has ever been! The Barb Wire Compendium 648-page (6.625×10.1875”) paperback will be available in bookstores on February 17, and comic shops on February 18, 2026, for $39.99. Pre-order now from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or your local bookstore or comic shop

Dark Horse announces Uri Tupka and the Gods by Mike Mignola

Posted on by

Just months after releasing one of the most acclaimed graphic novels of 2025, legendary Hellboy creator Mike Mignola is expanding the Lands Unknown universe with a brand new graphic novel from Dark Horse Books. Fans first encountered the shared universe co-created by Mignola and his longtime collaborator Ben Stenbeck earlier this year in Mignola’s critically acclaimed anthology of folklore-inspired fantasy stories Bowling With Corpses and other Strange Tales from Lands Unknown, which sold out immediately and is already in its third printing with a fourth being prepared. Now, Dark Horse Comics is preparing to release Uri Tupka and The Gods, a new graphic novel written and drawn by Mike Mignola with colors by Dave Stewart, coming in February 2026.

Uri Tupka and The Gods: Another Story from Lands Unknown follows the titular wayward theologian across the Lands Unknown on a quest to prove that ancient powerful gods shaped the world. Uri’s journey puts him face to face with mythical creatures, thieves, dragons, and a tomb of unspeakable horror. But nothing can prepare the unlikely adventurer for what he learns about the universe or his role in it.

Uri Tupka and The Gods: Another Story from Lands Unknown is the first of two books tracing the life of Uri Tupka, former Doctor of Theology but now heretic, on the run as he looks for the truth about the gods. It also expands the world that was introduced in Bowling with Corpses with much more to come. Uri Tupka and the Gods: Another Story from Lands Unknown is a 104-page hardcover that will be released in bookstores and comic shops on February 24, 2026.

Flameo, hotman! Dark Horse Books, in collaboration with Avatar Studios and Avatar: The Last Airbender co-creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, continue the adventures of the beloved animated series in original comics. Now, three standalone graphic novels featuring Fire Nation favorites will be collected into one hot set for collectors.

The Avatar: the Last Airbender—Fire and Family Treasury Boxed Set brings together Avatar: The Last Airbender—Azula in the Spirit Temple, The Bounty Hunter and the Tea Brewer, and Ashes of the Academy. The Ringo Award-winning creative team behind Avatar: The Last Airbender—Suki, Alone returns for these new adventures, each written by Faith Erin Hicks with art by Peter Wartman, colors by Adele Matera, and letters by Comicraft’s Jimmy Betancourt. This set of three paperback volumes is presented in a beautifully designed slipcase featuring new artwork by Peter Wartman and Adele Matera and includes a new fold-out poster.

In Azula and the Spirit Temple, after a failed attack on her brother, Azula finds herself in a strange forest temple inhabited by a solitary monk… or is it something more mysterious? Azula must confront her past, and will finally face a chance at redemption.

The Bounty Hunter and the Tea Brewer follows Iroh and the bounty hunter June, after June kidnaps the tea shop proprietor intending to collect the generous bounty on his head. Iroh must confront a painful part of his past when faced with those who placed the bounty on him, while his journey inspires June to rethink her life as well.

In Ashes of the Academy, Zuko continues his reform campaign in the Fire Nation—and his focus is now on the Royal Fire Academy for Girls, where his younger half-sister, Kiyi, is now a student. When Zuko finds Azula’s old school resistant to change, he enlists the help of Mai to monitor the situation and keep an eye on Kiyi—as an academy teacher! And it’s a good thing, because there’s more than schoolwork afoot at the academy.

The Avatar: The Last Airbender—Fire and Family Boxed Set collects three original paperback volumes together in a slipcase. Each volume spans 80 pages and measures 9 x 6” and is recommended for ages 8 and up. The boxed set will be available on September 16, 2025 at bookstores and on September 17, 2025, at comic shops.
