SDCC 2026: Frank Miller and Dark Horse tease Invasive Species and New Projects!

Posted on by

World-renowned creator, Frank Miller, returns to San Diego Comic Con to celebrate a new sci-fi series coming to Dark Horse, Invasive Species! Invasive Species illustrator Ryan Benjamin and colorist Alex Sinclair will also join Miller for the signing, which will feature never-before-seen art from the series.

Any day you get to personally announce a new Frank Miller book is already amazing but when you get to add Ryan Benjamin and Alex Sinclair to the mix it becomes one for the ages. I can’t wait for fans to see what they’re doing in the new book Invasive Species and folks at SDCC will be the first to see it!

-Tim Weisch, Head of Publishing and Business Development

Miller had launched an independent publishing line, Frank Miller Presents, in 2022 with Dan DiDio which released a few series but eventually sizzled. The line eventually found new life with a new publisher, but that was short lived it sounds like. Invasive Species was last teased by Abrams ComicArts as part of their “new line” of monthly comics during San Diego Comic-Con 2024. That line has generally petered out and didn’t amount to much. Originally set for a release of January 8, 2025, the comic has been missing from shelves.

Miller is also working alongside Dark Horse Comics for new projects, to be announced at a later date.

SDCC 2024: Abrams ComicArts announces Abrams Comics with monthly comics from Darren Aronofsky and Frank Miller

Posted on by

At San Diego Comic Con, Abrams ComicArts announced a new initiative—Abrams Comics a new line of monthly-issue comics that officially begins this fall with the release of Human Nature #1 from filmmaker Darren Aronofsky! Abrams ComicArts is expanding into the direct market, working with phenomenal talent to create exciting new monthly single issues, available in comic shops across the country. This is one piece of ComicArts exciting expansion into new areas, as seen in the recent announcement of a new manga line, Kana, also launching this fall. 

HUMAN NATURE

Writers: Darren Aronofsky, Ari Handel, and Jeff Welch
Interior and Cover Artist: Martín Morazzo
Colorist (Interior and Cover): Chris O’Halloran
Letterer: Aditya Bidikar
1st issue on sale: November 20, 2024 (Monthly series) 

From Academy Award-nominated director Darren Aronofsky and his writing and producing partner Ari Handel, along with Jeff Welch, comes Human Nature, a social satire of a bizarre yet fathomable future. Drawn by comic book industry giant Martín Morazzo, Human Nature follows the ego-maniacal, Nebraskan chicken magnate Duke. Duke has almost all the world’s resources at his disposal. Once an everyman, Duke managed to work (and intimidate) his way into an endless fortune. Even though he has almost everything, there’s one thing even the richest man in the world can’t buy: immortality. Or can he?

Strange, thought-provoking, and, at times, gruesome, read the mini-series Human Nature to get a glimpse of a future resulting from unchecked greed, corporate corruption, and ethically questionable science.
