A New Disney Stitch Anthology Series Debuts Ahead of 626 Day!

Celebrate 626 Day with an anthology series stuffed with fun, diverse stories starring the titular blue-furred bundle of mischief!

What is 626 Day? Stitch – the blue alien buddy who co-stars in Disney’s Lilo & Stitch – was originally designated as Experiment 626. While Dr. Jumba Jookiba created more unique experiments, 626 is the most famous. 626 Day offers Disney fans the opportunity to playfully celebrate the beloved character that has captivated global audiences while commemorating his intergalactic namesake.

Lilo & Stitch: 626 is a three-issue series that will bookend 626 Day with releases in May, June, and July. The fabulous first issue features two stories showcasing the joy of the character and his colorful cast. Jet-setting Jeff Eckleberry handles lettering throughout the book.

Critically acclaimed wordsmith Daniel Kibblesmith, following from his fan-favorite run with Darkwing Duck, takes on the little mischief alongside artist Elisa Pochetta. The pair unveil for the first time to fans the secret origin of Agent Cobra Bubbles — or at least Lilo’s interpretation of it!

Then, another Disney X Dynamite legend in the making takes on the second story, as George Kambadais writes and draws a tale of Captain Gantu stranded on an Old West-styled planet all by himself, surrounded by dangerous criminals from his past!

Subsequent issues will turn the spotlight to other beloved members of the cast like Nani, Jumba, Pleakley, David, Mertle, and more. An equally expansive roster of talented writers and artists will be featured in the next two releases, including Moana McAdams, Chuck Brown, Jeff Parker, Edwin GalmonMiriana Puglia, Emiliana Pinna, and Giulia Giacomino.

The ZPD partners reassure the bears that they’re only checking up on the wayward scouts, who are busy honing their survival skills. But as Nick helps the kids out by drawing on his own scouting past, Judy becomes suspicious of their Den Mother’s curriculum — which seems to involve a awful lot of panning for gold!
