Since her debut in All-Star Comics #8 in 1941, Wonder Woman has stood as a champion of truth, compassion, and equality throughout the DC Universe and beyond. Princess Diana of Themyscira has lived many lives, but her commitment to peace and justice has never wavered. On the anniversary of the Amazon Princess’s historic DC debut, DC looks toward her extraordinary future by declaring 2027 the Year of Wonder, an unforgettable year of stories from celebrated comic book creators.
Legendary writer Louise Simonson writes DC’s main Wonder Woman series for the first time beginning with Wonder Woman #41 on January 20, joining acclaimed artist Cian Tormey for a new four-issue story that establishes a bold new status quo for Diana and her world.
In Simonson and Tormey’s story, Wonder Woman is determined to abolish the Amazon Safety Act and clear the way for her sisters to return to the shores of Man’s World. But after everything they have endured, are the Amazons ready to return, or have they given up on saving humanity from itself?
Following Simonson and Tormey’s four-issue story, writer Stephanie Williams and artist Elena Casagrande take the reins for an all-new six-issue arc continuing the Year of Wonder through October 2027.
Williams returns to Diana’s world after contributing four issues to DC’s Wonder Woman series in 2026 and co-writing Wonder Woman 2026 Annual: Wonder War – The Matriarch Special #1. She currently writes the DC GO! webcomic series Warriors and a Wee Wonder, which will soon transition to Warriors and a ’Tween Wonder. Together with Casagrande on DC’s main Wonder Woman series, Williams will carry Wonder Woman into the next chapter of a year designed to celebrate the character’s enduring power, limitless potential, and place at the heart of the DC Universe.
More Wonder Woman stories and superstar creators will be revealed as DC’s Year of Wonder continues throughout 2027.
Wonder Woman #41, written by Louise Simonson with art by Cian Tormey, features a main cover by Ryan Sook and variant covers by Daniel Sampere, Walter Simonson, and Tormey. The issue also features a foil variant cover by David Nakayama and a Sweater Weather variant cover by Alexander Lozano. The 32-page issue arrives at participating comic book shops and digital retailers on January 20, 2027, for $4.99 US, with card stock variants available for $5.99 US.

Following the explosive monster success of the best reviewed creator-owned debut of the year, Only The Savage Are Left, the immense popularity of Masterminds, and the highly anticipated August release The Smart Division, Zack Kaplan concludes a blockbuster year with Dark Horse Comics by teaming up with Marvel superstar artist Francesco Mortarino, for the climactic finale of immortal Vikings and blood-soaked business with Kill All Immortals III.
After facing the consequences of mortality for the first time in their lives and surviving the challenge, the Asvald siblings must sacrifice everything or risk total destruction at the hands of impossibly powerful immortal foes! Colorist Thiago Rocha and Eisner-winning letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou return for more high stakes family and societal drama that’s been described as Succession meets John Wick.
Arriving in October, Kill All Immortals III features main cover art by series cover artist Oliver Barrett, with issue #1 enjoying variant covers from Eliza Ivanova, Elena Casagrande, and celebrated cover artist Jenny Frison.
The Asvalds were once a billionaire Viking family with the secret to immortality, until the family’s only daughter, Frey Asvald, led a rebellion against their barbaric father. Now, with their family splintered and wounded, they find a daunting world of rival immortals seeking their demise at every turn. As Frey takes on her most deadly adversaries yet, she must finally decide what is most important, her freedom from war or her Viking vengeance.
The world of immortal Vikings was drenched in violence and death against just one rival, but how will the Asvalds prevail against an immortal world ready to destroy them.
Zack Kaplan and Francesco Mortarino leave every heart-stopping moment on the page when Kill All Immortals III #1 (of 5) arrives in comic shops on October 7, 2026, for $4.99.
Following the epic announcement of the return of Buffy the Vampire Slayer comics with Kelly Thompson at the helm, Dynamite has announced the companion series that fans have been waiting for, asAngelkicks off this August by Thompson and artist Giulia Giacomino.
Once the terrifying vampire known as Angelus, the man fans now know as Angel was cursed for his crimes with the return of his soul. His newfound humanity led him to the seemingly idyllic small town of Sunnydale, and a star-crossed love affair with the Slayer — Buffy Summers. Once the tragedy had run its course, Angel set off for new adventures (and his own show) in Los Angeles as a detective specializing in supernatural cases and helping the helpless.
Things don’t always go according to plan however and sometimes you do have to go home again. But what if in trying to set something right, chaos follows? This is that story.
Best-selling and Eisner Award-winning writer Kelly Thompson helms both Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel titles — structured as a seamless event story that will redefine the Buffyverse.
She’s joined on Angel by rising star artist Giulia Giacomino, who made her breakout at Dynamite on Lilo & Stitch and comes from the lineage of Mirka Andolfo’s legendary Arancia Studio. Alongside Buffy‘s Stephen Byrne, Giacomino is tasked with capturing the magic of all these beloved characters for fans new and old. Colorist Lee Loughridge and letterer Jeff Eckleberry round out the cast.
This is a one-of-a-kind crossover event that Thompson has described as “setting the table” for a whole new status quo in the Buffyverse. Angel #1 picks up directly after the events of Buffy #1, and fans are encouraged to follow along with both in release order to get the full Buffyverse experience and enjoy the epic tale Thompson is crafting — including big surprises that will be revealed at release! The flexible nature of comics allows the creative team to tap into what fans love — to see the relationships and emotional ties between these iconic characters in visually stunning ways. That said, the two titles have their own identity with Angel narrating and guiding his own series, and Buffy doing the same in hers.
Complementing the all-star cast of artists assembled for Buffy covers, her bad boy fallen Angel beau isn’t lacking in that department either. Superstar David Nakayama contributes the lead cover, matching up with his Buffy piece. He’s joined by Clayton Crain, Meredith McClaren, and Meghan Hetrick who all fit the distinct tone of the series. A series of Icon covers starts with remastering gorgeous works by Jenny Frison.
Avid Angel collectors can also consider the mystery blind bag, featuring three premium variant covers for the book selected randomly from a range of logo-less editions, line art presentations of art, and wholly original artwork exclusive to this offering.
Dynamite has announced a paperback volume coming this summer featuring the entirety of Gail Simone and Walter Geovani‘s revered, history-making run on Red Sonja.
The upcoming release reprints all of Red Sonja #0-18 as well as a batch of extras.

In addition to all of the stories written by Simone and illustrated primarily by Geovani, a gallery of iconic covers from Jenny Frison, Nicola Scott, Fiona Staples, Amanda Conner, Stephanie Buscema, and more are also included.
Her yarns of the Hyrkanian Heroine include a revamped origin story, a memorable supporting cast and foes, to a nearly unanimously lauded reaction from readers and critics.
Following this series, Gail continued with Sonja in Dynamite’s crossover event Swords of Sorrow, featuring other legendary women of comics and pulp fiction like Vampirella, Dejah Thoris, Kato, Jungle Girl, and more. With tie-ins written by other top women in comics, the whole crossover is also available in a 500-page tome serving as a perfect companion to this new edition.
