Warbird #1 has some great action and definitely feels like it’d fit as an 80s action movie

Posted on by Leave a comment

Cole is a repo man of the highest caliber, repossessing heavily guarded mega yachts from billionaires, private planes from captains of industry, and everything in-between. If it’s got an engine, he can drive it, ride it, or fly it straight out from under the nose of an army of guards, for a 10% fee.

But now he’s been brought the job of a lifetime—an impossible job. One that will bring him face to face with the highest stakes. The Russians have stolen aeronautical military secrets from China, France, Germany, the UK, and the US to Frankenstein together the ultimate bleeding edge, next-gen fighter jet: the Spearhead.

There are only three of them in existence. They are an absolute force of nature dominating every global hotspot from Syria to Ukraine. Cole’s been hired to steal one… and destroy the other two. And at a price of $500 million each, his fee is a cool $50 million.

But this isn’t a repo. This is outright theft. And failure doesn’t mean jail time and fines—it means a bullet to the back of the head.

Warbird #1

(W) Robert Venditti, Derek Kolstad (A) Alex Maleev, Esad Ribic

Blockbuster screenwriter Derek Kolstad, creator and writer of the internationally acclaimed, box office dominating motion picture franchise JOHN WICK, New York Times best-selling writer Robert Venditti (SUPERMAN ‘78), and master illustrator Alex Maleev, the Eisner Award-winning artist behind seminal runs on Daredevil, Moon Knight and more, have combined powers to bring you a white-knuckle, globe-spanning action/spy thrill ride.

Cole is a repo man of the highest caliber, repossessing heavily guarded mega yachts from billionaires, private planes from captains of industry, and everything in-between. If it’s got an engine, he can drive it, ride it, or fly it straight out from under the nose of an army of guards.

Now he’s handed the job of a lifetime. The impossible job. One that will bring him face to face with the highest stakes.

The Russians have stolen aeronautical military secrets from China, France, Germany, The UK, and the US to “Frankenstein” together the ultimate bleeding edge, next-gen fighter jet: The Warbird. There are only three of them in existence. They are a force of absolute nature—$1.4 billion apiece—dominating every global hotspot from Syria to Ukraine. And Cole’s been hired to steal one… and destroy the other two.

His fee? 10%. A cool $140 million. But this isn’t a repossession job. This is outright theft. And failure doesn’t mean jail time and fines—it means a bullet to the back of the head.

Jackson Lanzing, Collin Kelly, and Ibrahim Roberson shake up the world of Dungeons & Dragons in an Epic Ongoing Comic Series

Posted on by

Dark Horse Comics and Hasbro’s Wizards of the Coast have announced Dungeon & Dragons, a new ongoing series following Mad Mage Mordenkainen as he assembles Faerûn’s most legendary heroes, including Volo, Tasha, and more fan-favorite adventurers, for a high-fantasy epic that spans the Forgotten Realms! The series will be written by Eisner-nominated creators Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly, penciled by Ibraim Roberson, inked by Arabson Oliveira, colored by Dan Brown, and lettered by Haley-Rose Lyon. Each issue will feature essays from RPG personalities or Dungeon & Dragons campaign assets that will be exclusive to the single issues.

Issue #1 debuts November 2026 and will feature cover art by Esad Ribić, D&D 5e Key Art Artist Tyler Jacobson, Antonio José Manzanedo (foil variant), Karen Darboe, Mateus Manhanini, and Eric Canete (1:25 ratio variant). Erika Ishii, voice actor and live play talent on Dimension 20, will write an essay for the backmatter.

A draconic apocalypse approaches the Forgotten Realms, and it has one name on its lips: MORDENKAINEN. Now, stripped of his magic but never out of the fight, the most powerful wizard in all reality will need the help of Faerûn’s most legendary heroes to restore the balance.

Dungeon & Dragons #1 will be available in comic shops on November 4, 2026. It is now available for preorder from your local comic shop for $4.99.

The immortal warrior B. is dead.

Again. Not for long, of course. But, in the Bronze Age, two rogue scientists have siphoned off a tiny portion of his protoplasm before he can fully reconfigure, and something else has been born anew…

Drawing on real historical figures and events, and secret histories of alchemy, writer Season Butler, along with China Miéville, and artist Alessio Avalone craft a story that’s at once grim and funny, poignant and touching, about what it is to be “human” in the brand-new one-shot BRZRKR: Light Draws Breath #1.

Get a  look at the Miles Morales (Aliens Vs. Avengers Suit) 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure by Hot Toys! In the Aliens Vs. Avengers crossover comic series by Jonathan Hickman and Esad Ribić, Miles Morales faces a nightmarish fate when a Facehugger latches onto him in a dystopian future swarming with Xenomorphs. But instead of being consumed, his suit — revealed to be a symbiote — absorbs the alien parasite and evolves into a hybrid.

The limited-edition Miles Morales (Aliens Vs. Avengers Suit) 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure captures this striking fusion of Spider-Man and Alien mythology. 

This highly poseable figure features over 30 points of articulation and comes with a newly developed masked head plus 3 pairs of interchangeable eye pieces. 

Miles is dressed in a tailored Spider-Man suit made of pearlescent white-colored elastic fabric material, detailed with Facehugger-shaped symbiote patterns and a spider emblem on the chest. Accessories include six strings of webbing in various shapes and lengths, a dark pink spider emblem that is magnetically attachable to Miles’ chest, and a symbiote-bonded Facehugger with bendable wire embedded for additional posing options. The diorama figure base is scattered with Xenomorph remains for an immersive display.

The Miles Morales (Aliens Vs. Avengers Suit) 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure delivers a fearsome and unforgettable twist on the Miles Morales legacy. Available to pre-order!
