Dark Horse Manga heats up the winter months with some sure-fire hits arriving soon. Check out the latest list of titles available for pre-order from local bookstores and comic shops now!
Cthulhu Cat
Dark Horse invites cat lovers across the cosmos to experience a new take on the eldritch horrors of Lovecraftian lore with Cthulhu Cat, a one-shot, full-color gag manga from Pandania. This volume is a charming tribute both to Lovecraft’s stories and Lovecraft the cat lover, translated by Zack Davisson, with lettering by Steve Dutro.
An ordinary Japanese high school student takes home an abandoned supernatural cat left in a cardboard box. Maybe he shouldn’t have meddled with kitties beyond human comprehension—after all, it had tentacles where its whiskers should have been! But it’s too late now. With no Elder Sign on the cat door, soon the pick of the Mythos litter starts to invade his house, as furry and feline versions of Hastur, Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep, and other adorable Lovecraftian horrors blast his mind, whisper impossible secrets, and generally get underfoot!
Ph’nglui mglw’nfah Cthulhu Cat R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagnya!
(“In his house in R’lyeh dead Cthulhu Cat waits dreaming, meow!”)
Cthulhu Cat (136 pages, 5.75″ x 8.25″) arrives in trade paperback on bookstore shelves September 17, 2024 and comic shops September 18, 2024. Pre-order at your local comic shop, bookstore, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble for $14.99.
Danganronpa 2: Chiaki Nanami’s Goodbye Despair Quest Volume 2
Dark Horse Manga resumes the fan-favorite character Chiaki Nanami’s dedicated storyline in Danganronpa 2: Chiaki Nanami’s Goodbye Despair Quest Volume 2. With over 800,000 copies in print, Dark Horse’s previous Danganronpa manga have become favorites of fans of the video game and anime franchise, and Chiaki’s story is shaping up to be no exception! Manga creator Suzuragi Karin and Spike Chunsoft bring the tech savvy high schooler’s perspective to light in this most dangerous game.
Nanami witnesses the unexpected power of Monomi against a fearsome guardian Monobeast, allowing students to access a new island at the tropical Jabberwock resort/prison! The island has a library, a diner, but strangest of all, it has Hope’s Peak Academy itself, mysteriously covered by a growth of trees and vines. Some believe video games cause violence, and Monokuma is out to prove it, as he challenges the class to play a game within their game—Twilight Syndrome, which he claims will reveal their next motive to commit murder. This is just the kind of dare that Chiaki Nanami, the Ultimate Gamer, can’t resist, but she vows that whatever the playthrough, she won’t allow another class killing to take place!
The 186-page Danganronpa 2: Chiaki Nanami’s Goodbye Despair Quest Volume 2 (of 3) spawns in trade paperback (5 1/8″ x 7 1/4″) on bookstore shelves July 23, 2024 and comic shops July 24, 2024. Pre-order at your local comic shop, bookstore, Amazon or Barnes and Noble for $13.99.

Keep up with the dramatic, aesthetic saga and pre-order Innocent Omnibus Volume 3 before it hits store shelves in October 2024.
Change is on the horizon, as Marie-Joseph ascends the block. The rivalry between Charles-Henri and his sister has hit a peak. With Charles-Henri accepting his position as the head of House Sanson and Marie-Joseph rejecting all convention, the conflict threatens to shatter the family legacy. Meanwhile, Charles meets a young prince who invites him to the Palace of Versailles, but this is no place for an executioner.
Shin’ichi Sakamoto masterfully fictionalizes the true life of Charles-Henri Sanson, known as the Monsieur de Paris—“Gentleman of Paris,” who performed nearly 3,000 executions in 18th century France. Available in English for the first time and presented in a special omnibus edition collecting the final volumes 7-9 of the original Japanese manga series!

They say eighth grade is the time to have delusions, but Tome Kurata, president of the Telepathy Club, is now in the ninth, and she still hasn’t managed to make mental contact with aliens. With graduation from middle school coming fast, can the rest of the club put aside their goofing off long enough to help Tome achieve her dream? Maybe with the help of Reigen, Mob, and a mountain pilgrimage, they can!

Not everyone chooses the streets. Sometimes, when everything is taken away, it’s all that’s left. The slums of Shindjin have long since been the champion of poverty. Violence and extortion are commonplace, where one’s fate can literally be determined by a roll of the dice. A place where the fallout of these actions fall onto the shoulders of children. Shou and Jun are two such children, torn from the comfort of the lives they knew and thrust into an environment where organized crime is law. With nowhere to turn, they’re forced to become the very thing that ruined their lives.

As a member of the Cacciatore Guild, Danielle Burroughs is one of the criminal underworld’s most renowned hitmen. Despite her success, memories from her past bleed into the present and force her to reconsider the life she now leads. Events are set in motion once she kills Emilio Francesca, her caretaker, but accidentally also kills his daughter, Lilio, in the process. She realizes that she’s had enough of this life, one now truly without meaning. Leaving it all behind, she soon realizes that even Death is no escape from her past.
TRY AGAIN is based on an original story idea created by Will Brown, a 15-year music producer with multiple award nominations for his work. His love for anime, games, and comics led him to co-found Noir Caesar Entertainment with former NBA player Johnny O’Bryant III and create this action-packed story.
