The Renaissance Wasn’t Ready for This! Leo Da Vinci: Renaissance Kid arrives April 2026

Posted on by

After moving to Florence, young Leo da Vinci teams up with two unlikely friends to challenge corruption with art, pranks, and inventions—all before their world ends!

Papercutz presents Leo Da Vinci: Renaissance Kid, a dazzling, full-color middle-grade adventure from award-winning writer Richard Ashley Hamilton and Italian illustrator Marco Matrone. This exciting historical romp re-imagines the world’s most iconic genius as a rebellious, prank-loving kid on a mission to prove that imagination can change the world!

Most people think of Leonardo da Vinci as some old guy who painted stuff hundreds of years ago—but even da Vinci was once a bold, troublemaking kid who craved adventure!

Young Leo spends his childhood exploring art (and creepy caves) while engineering fantastical machines of wonder in the freedom of his hometown…until his estranged dad drags Leo to an apprenticeship far away. Now our boy genius finds himself out of his depth and in a city on the brink of war! Fortunately, Leo also finds two new friends who will change his life forever. Together, they uncover a deadly conspiracy that threatens the entire world, even if nobody believes them. So Leo must grab everyone’s attention the only way he knows how—with elaborate pranks that harness the true power of art to open eyes, change minds, and save the day.  

Leo Da Vinci: Renaissance Kid (HC 9781545823743 | PB 9781545823750) hits bookstores, comic shops, and digital retailers April 14, 2026 (the day before Leonardo Da Vinci’s actual birthday!)

Being Bad Is Un-BEAR-able… Jim Benton’s Clyde arrives March 2026 from Papercutz in both English and Spanish

Posted on by

Doing good may not always be rewarded, but it always matters. Real strength comes from kindness, not toughness… Clyde Vol. 1—an original middle-grade graphic novel from New York Times–bestselling creator Jim Benton, with the Spanish edition lettered by Miguel Ángel Zapata, in partnership with Papercutz, is coming to comic shops in both English and Spanish editions in March 2026.

As the creator of Attack of the Stuff and the global phenomenon It’s Happy Bunny, Benton’s work has sold millions of copies worldwide and has earned him multiple honors, including Comic-Con International’s Inkpot Award and several American Library Association distinctions. With his trademark mix of humor and sincerity, Benton turns his lens to a bear whose journey proves that kindness can be its own kind of rebellion.

When Clyde the bear decides to ditch his safe and peaceful life in Cubville and head off for the mean streets of Grizzly City, he learns—with the help of a reformed juvenile delinquent butterfly—that the Bad Life isn’t always so great, and there’s something to be said for helping your friends and family even though that really does kind of stink a little.

Clyde Vol. 1 releases March 17, 2026, and will be available in both English and Spanish editions in hardcover ($17.99, ISBN 9781545823552), paperback ($12.99, ISBN 9781545823569), and Spanish paperback ($12.99, ISBN 9781545823576).

Phineas and Ferb’s A-Maze-Ing Creature Double Feature

(W) Scott Peterson, Joshua Pruett (A) Mara Angelilli, Francesca Follini, Gianluca Papi (C) Jurek Malottke, Francesca Vivaldi (L) Buddy Beaudoin (CA) Scott Neely

In the first half of this outrageous and original double feature, Phineas and the gang invent a maze to get lost in, but Doofenshmirtz’s ELONG-inator makes it so big that it absorbs all of Danville; and now everyone ELSE is lost too! Our heroes must invent their way out while Agent P stops Doof from exploiting the maze to take over the entire Tri-State area!

The second story features an alternate reality take on our fan-favorite characters, with Dr. Doofenshmirtz as a cheesy, late night TV horror movie host. When Phineas and Ferb discover actual monsters in Danville, they seek out Doof’s help, even as Candace, a staunch non-believer, vows to reveal them as frauds. With the help of Doof and his horror movie knowledge, the kids build wild inventions to confront the creepy creatures, before facing their largest monster yet: a gigantic, feral Perry the Platypus!
