Though the exciting blind bag release for the first issue will still be hitting June 3, packed with the final first prints. Future issues are expected to hit their originally solicited dates for retailers and readers, including #3 in stores July 8.

DC has announced Batman & Robin: Year One – Dynamic Duos, a new 12-issue monthly comic book series from the award-winning team of Mark Waid and Chris Samnee, launching August 12, 2026. Following their acclaimed Batman & Robin: Year One, Waid and Samnee continue exploring the formative partnership between Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson that was introduced in Year One in a new story that blends heart, humor, and high-stakes capes-and-tights fun while charting new territory for the early Dynamic Duo.

Who is the hidden hand guiding these young mischief-makers?

With Waid and Samnee co-writing the series, interior art and the main cover by Samnee, color by Mat Lopes, and lettering by Clayton Cowles, Dynamic Duos continues the creative momentum that made the first 12 issues of Batman & Robin: Year One an instant fan favorite and landed Eisner Award nominations for Samnee, Lopes, and Cowles.

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!

NYCC 2025: Jeff Lemire Dustin Nguyen reunite for Crowbound at Image

Crowbound

The bestselling, award winning creative team behind such sales chart toppers as Descender, Ascender, and Little Monsters—Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen—will re-team with an all-new ongoing series in the upcoming Crowbound. This dark fantasy epic was announced last night at New York Comic Con to a packed room of comic shop retailers at the Lunar Distribution retailer event. Crowbound is set to launch from Image Comics in March 2026.

At thirteen, every child begins their life inside The Factory—a vast, monolithic superstructure that cleaves the world in two—pulling levers, pushing buttons, and never knowing why. But Ava is a beautiful girl and the sinister Factory Men decide hers will be a fate of “special service” up the coast. Left reeling from their violent separation, her mother, Rose, embarks on a desperate rescue attempt when she strikes an uncertain bargain with the eerie, otherworldly Scarecrow Queen…

Fueled by fury, grief, and an undying love, Rose sets out on a nightmarish journey across the lowlands—a haunted, post-apocalyptic dreamscape crawling with strange creatures, forgotten gods, and the twisted remains of the old world—to find her daughter at any cost. 

Crowbound is a blood-soaked fairytale, steeped in Southern Gothic dread and Neo-Western grit, where one woman’s hope flickers fiercely against the encroaching shadows.
