DC All In goes Next Level with its Second Arc Starting March 2026!

After DC’s brawling DC K.O. comic book event series concludes on March 4, 2026, Scott Snyder and Joshua Williamson are helping to take “DC All In” to the “Next Level,” beginning a second act of the publishing initiative that began with the DC All in Special and the launch of DC’s Absolute universe.

DC: Next Leve is a series of bold, creator-forward #1s, starring fan-favorite characters, and helmed by some of the best talent in comics. These new Next Level titles will launch alongside bold new storylines in DC’s ongoing and limited series as DC All In begins its second act.

NEXT LEVEL IS LOBO’S ONLY LEVEL WITH SKOTTIE YOUNG AND JORGE CORONA RIDING SHOTGUN!

The Eisner-nominated creative team that brought you a fantastic parable of adolescence in the Midwest, the story of an artist who embraces darkness a little too closely, and the tale of a gunslinger with too much grit to stay buried, brings you a classic yarn spun in the star-kissed threads of the cosmic DC Universe.

Vrrrrroooooommmmmmmm! The Main Man’s back, baby! And his ride is a motorcycle that moves at the speed of sound, but only if that sound is a rippin’ guitar solo, and you better hop on before he leaves you in the dust with all the bastiches he’s fragged for money or convenience!

It’s a guts-soaked path from DC K.O. to the end of the universe, where Lobo is going to scratch his name and number in the Source Wall with a cool knife. Don’t miss the mayhem, special guests, or tasty, tasty continuity! Don’t you do it!

Lobo, a new DC Next Level comic book series written by Skottie Young with art and main cover by Jorge Corona, debuts on March 4, 2026. The first issue features open-to-order card stock variants by Lee Bermejo, KyuYong Eom, and Corona, priced at $3.99 US ($4.99 US for card stock; $6.99 US for foil). Juan Ferrerya contributes a 1:25 incentive variant, while Bermejo’s cover will also be available as an open-to-order foil edition, alongside a blank sketch cover.

Batwoman.

Daughter. Sister. Soldier. Hero.

But since she was 10 years old, Kate Kane has lived in the shadow of a prophecy and the machinations of a religion devoted to the end of all things. How do you fight the devil when the devil is real? And how do you win?

Prepare for brutal violence with over-the-top action and intrigue from the twisted mind of writer Tony Fleecs with pulse-pounding art by Carmine Di Giandomenico. DC’s contract killing bogeyman is back and bloodier than ever!

Soldier-turned-superhuman assassin for hire, Slade Wilson, has made hundreds of enemies in his day, and now one of them is taking his world apart piece by piece. The hit is out on Deathstroke, as he evolves into his purest form…a terminator out for revenge and ready to kill anyone who stands in his way.
