Dark Horse Books presents the From the World of Minor Threats Library Edition Volume 1, a new oversized hardcover collection compiling the first two series tied into Patton Oswalt, Jordan Blum, and Scott Hepburn’s genre-bending crime drama, Minor Threats. From the World of Minor Threats Library Edition Volume 1 will also feature new cover art from Hepburn, a sketchbook section, and pinups from some of comics’ leading artists.

The first tie-in series, From the World of Minor Threats: The Alternates, is written by Tim Seeley, Oswalt, and Blum, with illustrations by Christopher Mitten and Tess Fowler, colors by Ian Herring, and lettering by Nate Piekos. It follows Mary the Multi-Monster, The Tripper, Crab Louie, Kid Curious, and Persona, offbeat b-list superheroes formerly known as The Alternates, who seemingly sacrificed themselves to stop an invasion from another dimension. Instead, they were transported to a mirror reality where they lived complex lives in a more four-dimensional existence, expanding both their powers and consciousness.

Five years later, they’ve returned to Twilight City, struggling to reacclimate to their old lives in a traditional two-dimensional superhero world–in withdrawal from the vivid ones they left behind. When elements from this alternate reality turn up as a dangerous new street drug, some of the heroes band together to destroy it, while others succumb to its temptation.

The second series, From the World of Minor Threats: Barfly, is written by Kyle Starks, Oswalt, and Blum, with illustrations by Ryan Browne, and lettering by Piekos. It’s a heartwarming, feel-good, coming-of-age story about an insect monster-man searching for his identity amongst the criminal underworld of Twilight City. A grimy punk rock odyssey that answers the question “How much $#!% can one lackey eat before he says NO MORE?!

From the World of Minor Threats Library Edition Volume 1 (hardcover, 248 pages, 8” x 12.1875”) will be available in bookstores on June 2, 2026 and in comic shops on June 3, 2026. It is now available for pre-order at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and your local comic shop or bookstore for $49.99.
