SDCC 2026: Oni Press, Rebellion, and The Nacelle Company Press Kick Off the Fight of the 22nd Century in Judge Dredd/Biker Mice From Mars!

Posted on by

In advance of Comic-Con International 2026 in San Diego, CA, the Nacelle Company,​ Oni Press, and Rebellion have announced a historic partnership, which officially begins today with the announcement of Judge Dredd/Biker Mice From Mars #1 –  launching the wreckage-strewn collision of the 22nd Century’s most feared lawman against its hardest-charging mutant outlaws in a no-holds-barred showdown for supremacy! Spanning two 40-page, deluxe format issues beginning in December 2026, Judge Dredd/Biker Mice From Mars #1 written by​ writers Dan Watters and Ryan O’Sullivan with art by​ Jordi Tarragona. The debut issue features covers by David Finch, Karl Kerschl, and Andrew Krahnke, and more to be revealed!

Launching directly out of the pages of Judge Dredd/Biker Mice From Mars #1, the upcoming publishing collaboration will also mark the first milestone in a newly cemented merchandising partnership between Rebellion and the Nacelle Company that will see Nacelle’s Consumer Product division create a new line of highly detailed action figures and other collectibles that will feature crossovers between The Biker Mice From Mars and Rebellion’s Judge Dredd characters. The first wave of figures will be made available for pre-order this fall and be released online and in stores in 2027.

Across the frayed cordons of space-time, the greed-fueled oligarchs Limburger and Karbunkle have identified a strange new world to plunder, but they never anticipated that Throttle, Vinnie, and Modo – the extraterrestrial anti-heroes known as the Biker Mice From Mars – would dare to foil their latest cross-dimensional conquest: the smog-clogged metropolis known as Mega-City One.

Now, the Martian brothers and their bikes are stranded between blocks in Mega-City’s endless, chaotic sprawl … alongside 400 million citizens who want them dead and the one man committed to delivering them to justice at any cost: the unforgiving Judge Dredd! The law has no place for vermin on Mega-City One’s streets … but when the Biker Mice’s otherworldly abilities draw the gaze of the inhuman entity calledJudge Death, man and mouse alike will be caught in the crosshairs in the first-ever Biker Mice From Mars crossover outside of the NacelleVerse!

To celebrate the new partnership, Nacelle, Oni Press, and Rebellion will be giving fans a special reward directly from the streets of Mega-City One at Comic-Con International 2026 in San Diego, CA, beginning on​ Thursday, July 23rd! Simply visit the Rebellion booth (#2121) to retrieve your free Mega-City One parking ticket with an official Department of Justice stamp – then get it stamped again in sequence at the Nacelle Company booth (#2547) and Oni Press booth (#1829) to avoid the death penalty, and receive one of 500 limited-edition Judge Dredd/Biker Mice From Mars art prints, featuring the upcoming cover art of Eisner Award-winning artist David Finch!

SDCC 2025: Biker Mice From Mars Exclusives Unveiled by The Nacelle Company

Posted on by

The Nacelle Company has announced that two San Diego Comic-Con 2025 exclusive figure sets based on the popular Biker Mice From Mars animated series will be available for purchase by attendees during the convention week. The reveal marks another exciting step in the expansion of the NacelleVerse — a shared animated and collectible universe built around beloved ’80s and ’90s icons.

Straight from the surface of everyone’s favorite red planet (and the hearts of ’90s kids everywhere), Biker Mice From Mars made its original 1993 debut and quickly gained a cult following with its high-octane mix of mutant motorcycles, street-smart action, and punk-rock attitude. Now, over three decades later, they’ve never looked better.

With an already-growing popular toyline, the limited-edition Biker Mice From Mars figures will be available to fans for purchase at Booth #2547 during San Diego Comic-Con 2025:

  • Biker Mice from Mars 3-Pack – SDCC Exclusive (MSRP: $100): The set features premium, fully articulated versions of Throttle, Modo, and Vinnie, marking the first time in franchise history that the iconic trio is offered together in one package, and it also represents the first-ever SDCC exclusive for Biker Mice From Mars. The set includes a collector’s box featuring the official SDCC Exclusive 2025 logo, which will be available exclusively for this release and is limited to 500 units, making it a centerpiece-worthy release for any fan or collector.
  • Biker Mice from Mars Throttle Bootleg Edition – SDCC Exclusive (MSRP: $100) – This wildly creative Bootleg Edition is a nod to the gritty underground toy scene of the early ’90s and features Throttle, dressed in a hot dog costume and wearing a FansCon badge. Each figure is an unarticulated, hand-painted art toy-style collectible bootleg, designed and individually painted by acclaimed bootleg toy artist Marquee Marauders Club. Packaged in a limited edition of only 100 units with SDCC Exclusive 2025 logos attached, this figure combines irreverent creativity with nostalgic flair, making it an absolute must-have.

In addition to its ongoing comic series, created in collaboration with Oni Press, The Nacelle Company is launching a Biker Mice From Mars animated reboot. Recently unveiling a first look at WonderCon 2025, the reboot is being executive produced by Ryan Reynolds, Brian Volk-Weiss, and George Dewey. Much like its fellow Nacelleverse series, RoboForce The Animated Series – executive produced by Dwayne Johnson, Brian Volk-Weiss, and Dany Garcia, the new Biker Mice From Mars series promises to offer a dynamic blend of humor, action, and heart, qualities that made the original show a fan favorite.

The Nacelle Booth will also rev up the excitement with San Diego 2025 limited-edition, custom-designed Biker Mice from Mars magnets featuring fan-favorite characters Throttle, Vinnie, Modo, and Charley! These collectibles are available for free only with every $5+ purchase at the booth—and once they’re gone, they’re gone for good. Don’t miss your chance to collect all four! Supplies are extremely limited, so fans are encouraged to race over early as these magnets are bound to ride off fast! 

The Nacelle Company continues to develop an expansive toy line, comic book series, and upcoming animated reboot for classic fan-favorite properties like Biker Mice From Mars including RoboForce, Sectaurs, Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa, and more all serving as pillars of the NacelleVerse — an interconnected universe built with bold storytelling, imaginative design, and a deep respect for the originals.

Mini Reviews: Phoenix, Witchblade, The Rocketeer Breaks Free, Biker Mice From Mars, and the Powerpuff Girls!

Posted on by
The Powerpuff Girls #1

Sometimes, the staff at Graphic Policy read more comics than we’re able to get reviewed. When that happens you’ll see a weekly feature compiling reviews of the comics, or graphic novels, we just didn’t get a chance to write a full one for.

These are Graphic Policy’s Mini Reviews and Recommendations.

Logan

Phoenix #1 (Marvel) – Stephanie Phillips, Alessandro Miracolo, and David Curiel showcase why Jean Grey is one of the most powerful beings in the Marvel Universe in the first ever Phoenix solo series. The story opens and closes with “Thor: Godbutcher” meets Superman vibes as young, basically space ex-vangelical girl named Adani comes into contact with both the life and death sides of the Phoenix. Miracolo and Curiel’s visuals are glorious for the Phoenix’s feats of restarting a sun or collapsing a black hole while they use grid compositions for more human moments like her and Cyclops’ long distance relationship. The hook of the series is so compelling, “What if a good god made one mistake”, and with a lengthy guest appearance from Richard Rider’s Nova, Phoenix #1 feels more like a cosmic book than an X-Book. It’s the first hit of the “From the Ashes” era. Overall: 8.7 Verdict: Buy

Witchblade #1 (Image/Top Cow) – Marguerite Bennett, Giuseppe Cafaro, and Arif Prianto reimagine Sara Pezzini for the 21st century in a fragmented Witchblade #1. Most of the comic is standard noir/corrupt fare setting up for the big moment where Sara Pezzini wields the Witchblade. But then Bennett’s steady narrative captions and Cafaro’s powerful art really put me in the shoes of someone perfectly bonded with the Witchblade, which for most of the issue is like a body-snatching parasite hopping from person to person. This interactive experience offsets the steady, well-trod beats of the police procedural make the relaunch worth checking. Plus Marguerite Bennett’s prose is soulful and empowering. Overall: 7.5 Verdict: Read

The Rocketeer Breaks Free #1 (IDW) – Stephen Mooney and Staz Johnson prove that the Rocketeer is one of the enduring “neo-pulp” heroes in this delightful new miniseries. Rocketeer Breaks Free #1 is mostly table setting starting with a thrilling action sequence and then establishing the new status quo with Cliff temporarily going to San Francisco to be with his girlfriend Bettie while she works on a film. Johnson’s art is photorealistic, but not stiff, and colorists Len O’Grady and Marco Lesko add an optimistic touch to Rocketeer’s big rescue scene. I also like Mooney’s approach to the whole secret identity thing ; Bettie knows Cliff is the Rocketeer, but she doesn’t like him doing it except when there’s imminent danger. Add in a couple colorful supporting characters, and Rocketeer Breaks Free #1 is modern retro superheroics at its finest. Overall: 8.4 Verdict: Buy

Biker Mice from Mars #1 (Oni Press) – Melissa Flores, Francis Portela, and Leonardo Paciarotti revive the 1990s cartoon Biker Mice from Mars in this new miniseries. This launch issue balances toyetic, explosion-filled action with heavier content like a forever war, military conscription, and caring for a parent with Alzheimer’s. Plus the baddies they fight this issue are arms dealers. Like a box full of action figures, the characters are a little interchangeable, but the final scene hits like a “To be continued…” sequence in the 1992 X-Men cartoon so I’ll be back for issue two. Overall: 7.8 Verdict: Buy

Powerpuff Girls #1 (Dynamite) – As someone who grew up with the original cartoon, Powerpuff Girls is a fun and nostalgic read. Bubbles, blossom, and buttercup write down their destinies, feed into a HIM machine (Hmm?), and end up very different from the superheroes of Townsville. Artist Paulina Ganucheau revels in bringing the aesthetic of cute animals, film noir, and wrestling to the Powerpuff Girls art style while writer Kelly Thompson tells a high energy done-in-one tale with a fan-favorite villain. This is like experiencing a new episode of Powerpuff Girls, which is the highest praise for a comic licensing a cartoon. Overall: 8.0 Verdict: Buy

Graphic Policy’s Top Comic Picks this Week!

Posted on by
The Boxer Vol. 7

Wednesdays are new comic book day! Each week hundreds of comics are released, and that can be pretty daunting to go over and choose what to buy. That’s where we come in

Each week our contributors choose what they can’t wait to read this week or just sounds interesting. In other words, this is what we’re looking forward to and think you should be taking a look at!

Find out what folks think below, and what comics you should be looking out for this week.

Aria of the Beech Forest Vol. 1 (Yen Press) – The first volume is great and a fantastic fantasy series kids will enjoy.

Biker Mice From Mars #1 (Oni Press) – The classic animated series is back as a comic!

The Boxer Vol. 7 (Yen Press/IZE Press) – The amazing series continues with a brutal boxing match that shows us who the true monster is.

Dark Knights of Steel: Allwinter #1 (DC Comics/Elseworlds) – A new fantasy take on classic DC characters. We’re intrigued.

Destro #2 (Skybound) – The first issue was interesting expanding the world of G.I. JOE by showing off even more familiar characters. We’re intrigued to see who else pops up in this first issue.

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #308 (Skybound) – The series has been strong with action, paranoia, and a lot of chess. Add in great artwork and it’s one to not be missed.

The Last Wardens #1 (Mad Cave Studios) – A long-lost brother returns from the Vietnam War and he’s plagued by a mysterious and monstrous mutant and also being hunted!

Man’s Best #5 (BOOM! Studios) – Every issue has been great of this sci-fi series. We’re expecting the finale to be no less.

Namor #1 (Marvel) – Namor has been out of the spotlight for a while and this series feels like it’s going to put him right back in the spotlight with a new take.

Paranoid Gardens #1 (Dark Horse Comics) – Loo is a nurse at the most bizarre care-center in the universe. The staff are not entirely human, and the cases downright unearthly. Aliens, ghosts, superheroes, and more creatures plague its hallways as both doctors and patients and the hospital itself seems to be somewhat self-aware.

The Powerpuff Girls #1 (Dynamite Entertainment) – The classic animated series is back as a comic!

Ultimate X-Men #5 (Marvel) – The series has been fascinating, standing out as a horror take on the classic X-Men.

Witchblade #1 (Top Cow Productions) – It’s been quite a while since the series has been on the shelves and we’re excited to see what this update will bring and change.

Your Letter (Yen Press) – The best thing we’ve read this year.
