Giant-Sized Savage Tales #1

A Desperate Father, A Vanished Child, A Dark Reimagining Of A Classic Tale. Head to the Land of Never with Steve Orlando, Miguel Mora, Fares Maese, and Micah Myers

Mad Cave Studios has announced Land of Never, a haunting new series from writer Steve Orlando, with art and Cover A by Miguel Mora, colors by Fares Maese, lettering by Micah Myers, and a Cover B by Sebastián Píriz. Blending psychological horror with crime-driven suspense, the series reframes a familiar childhood myth through the story of a father determined to uncover the truth behind his daughter’s disappearance.

Six months ago, Jim Hoke’s daughter Wendy disappeared from her room. All Jim caught was a glimpse of a hulking figure at the window—the kind of late-night vision that’s easily written off as a hallucination. No one believes Jim’s story—and six months later, the retired pathologist is just looking for anyone who’ll still listen. And even if he finds someone, should they believe him? Jim had already retired early to plant evidence against an alleged killer. His word doesn’t mean much—and it means even less with him as a suspect in Wendy’s disappearance. He can’t leave town, he can’t forget what he saw, and he doesn’t get any sleep thanks to the nightmares.

With Wendy’s disappearance declared the coldest of cases, Jim believes he’s the only one who cares about finding his daughter. And he’s got a withered Father’s Day card in his pocket to remind him—all he can do is his best. So he’d better step it up. Jim goes into business for himself, tracking leads and harassing anyone polite enough to listen to his story. He dives into rabbit hole after rabbit hole, until he meets someone else like him. Then another, then another, a whole community of people who’ve lost someone to a cryptid they call the Floating Man—just like the huge creature Jim saw take Wendy. Suddenly, Wendy’s abductor has a name—the Floating Man. And Jim’s obsession has direction—he’s got to track down the Floating Man, uncover his crimes, and free not just his daughter Wendy, but everyone who’s been lost.

Land of Never #1 goes on sale June 17, 2026, with Final Order Cut-off on May 25.

THE COUNTDOWN TO CATASTROPHE BEGINS! In this special 40-page one-shot, acclaimed author ED BRISSON (ThunderCats: Lost, SilverHawks, Apex) and artists ELTON THOMASI and ALICE LECLERT bring readers three special tales that set the stage for a cataclysmic crossover event to come! THE PAST: Claudus’s heir to the throne of Thundera, the cub Lion-O, struggles to understand his destined place at the head of the kingdom. How can he protect an entire realm when he can barely lift a sword? And with the destruction of their planet looming, will the young prince be able to shoulder the burden of leadership? THE PRESENT: With mob boss Mon*Star gone, criminals from the furthest reaches of the galaxy are moving to fill the power vacuum left in his wake — and it’s up to the SilverHawks to stop them. But with their resources stretched thin, the team has to expand — and when Quicksilver and new recruit Chromium take on an intergalactic biker gang, the veteran and the rookie will face a real trial by fire! THE FUTURE: For the ThunderCats trapped in the far future of ThunderCats: Lost in Time, the quest to find a way back to the past is proving to be an exercise in frustration. A restless Neko begins pulling away from her teammates to wage a one-woman war against the Darkbirds, whose secrets may hold the key to the ’Cats survival — past, present, and future! Featuring spacetime-spanning covers from SEBASTIÁN PÍRIZ, MEGHAN HETRICK, FABIO FAILLA, and DECLAN SHALVEY, as well as a special piece of classic ANIMATION ART.

From Mark Russell and PJ Holden comes a Harrowing World War II Story about Survival, Truth, and the Human Cost of War, Dog Tag

When gunfire stops, survival doesn’t. This spring, Mad Cave Studios debuts Dog Tag, a six-issue war series from writer Mark Russell and artist PJ Holden, with colors by JP Jordan and lettering by Buddy Beaudoin.

Inspired by real events from the final year of World War II, the series follows a soldier-journalist as the line between witnessing war and surviving it disappears. Dog Tag #1 features variant covers by Sebastián Piriz and Erica Henderson

Dog Tag is a fictional story about a very real war. It follows the life and thoughts of Corporal Tom Fuller through the final year of World War II as his service takes him from the invasion of Normandy to the surrender of Japan. Borrowed from real-world stories and little-known events of the war, Dog Tag asks big questions about the war while focusing on the heroism of the ordinary people who lived and died during the conflict.

Dog Tag offers a grounded, emotionally resonant take on World War II—one that prioritizes humanity over the hero.

Dog Tag #1 hits comic shops on May 6, 2026, with Final Order Cut-off falling on April 13.

The new Ben 10 Comic Series Debuts in May!

Following the initial announcement at New York Comic Con, Dynamite Entertainment and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products have revealed further details for the hotly anticipated return of Ben 10 via comic books!

The franchise’s original creators, the fabulous foursome of Man of Action Entertainment (MOA) are all set to return to the character and mythos in this new comic book series that fans have been anxiously awaiting! Joe Casey, Joe Kelly, Duncan Rouleau, and Steven T. Seagle all come from an initial background in comics, before they joined together to form a powerhouse collective for comics, animation, television, film, and beyond.

This new era of Ben 10 comic books kicks off this May with an initial story arc led by Joe Casey and artist Robert Carey. The collective MOA team will drive the stories in the comic series, with individual partners taking turns scripting story arcs as the title progresses. Future tales from Kelly, Rouleau, and Seagle will be announced as they come around, offering fans new and old exciting visions of the franchise!

Casey’s first salvo sets the foundation for this new approach with a revamped origin story, a straightforward, action-oriented take on Ben Tennyson and his adventures. Updating the concept for a modern aesthetic and sensibility, both those who grew up with the series and newcomers will get the definitive new Ben 10 experience directly from the creators. A wider range of tones and themes will be explored, from drama, comedy, to tragedy, and even the surreal.

Ben Tennyson and his family are out camping, when a meteor crashes nearby. When the inquisitive boy investigates, he finds the mysterious Omnitrix among the wreckage. From that moment, a new superhero is born! This new telling of will allow Casey and team to expand the scale and scope of these pivotal, beloved moments. A range of “real world” impacts will be explored, with the military getting peripherally involved and a bona fide alien threat.

From there, the series will proceed in a manner similar to classic superhero comics, building the mythology slowly and surely, with approachable short story arcs. The Man of Action team will be able to pull from the entirety of Ben 10 iterations through the years, picking the coolest components, favorites from the rogues’ gallery, all the while revamping and establishing a deeper continuity.

The fiery first issue of Ben 10 debuts May 6, and is complemented by a range of variant covers matching the collaborative nature of the franchise and this series. Interior artist Robert Carey illustrates a cover, alongside Man of Action partner Duncan Rouleau, plus Dustin Nguyen, Sebastian Piriz, and Eric Canete. Collectors can opt for a mystery blind bag offering, containing one limited edition of the issue selected randomly from a range of covers exclusively available this way. Fans can also get a Blank Authentix so they can draw their own Ben 10 aliens, or get a custom sketch at a convention from their favorite artists or those involved in the series!
