Mark Waid and Chris Samnee team for More of Year One of Batman and Robin

Posted on by

DC has announced Batman & Robin: Year One – Dynamic Duos, a new 12-issue monthly comic book series from the award-winning team of Mark Waid and Chris Samnee, launching August 12, 2026. Following their acclaimed Batman & Robin: Year One, Waid and Samnee continue exploring the formative partnership between Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson that was introduced in Year One in a new story that blends heart, humor, and high-stakes capes-and-tights fun while charting new territory for the early Dynamic Duo.

Batman and Robin are back in action! The Caped Crusader and the Boy Wonder have been hard at work cleaning up the streets of Gotham City, and their partnership has only gotten tighter. But when a gang of street kids starts causing chaos, Batman and Robin will need to get to the bottom of where these kids came from and who is in charge! Who is the hidden hand guiding these young mischief-makers?

With Waid and Samnee co-writing the series, interior art and the main cover by Samnee, color by Mat Lopes, and lettering by Clayton Cowles, Dynamic Duos continues the creative momentum that made the first 12 issues of Batman & Robin: Year One an instant fan favorite and landed Eisner Award nominations for Samnee, Lopes, and Cowles. The launch issue of Batman & Robin: Year One – Dynamic Duos will also feature variant covers by Marc Silvestri, Dustin Nguyen, and Hayden Sherman, while Greg Capullo provides a Dark Knight Returns 40th anniversary variant cover.

Batman & Robin: Year One – Dynamic Duos #1 arrives in local comic book shops on August 12, 2026, retailing $4.99 US for the main cover and $5.99 US for card stock variant covers, and marks the beginning of the next chapter in Waid and Samnee’s definitive take on the early days of DC’s most iconic crime-fighting duo. The first twelve Batman & Robin: Year One issues are available wherever books are sold in both hardcover ($39.99 US) and softcover ($29.99 US) editions.

Art Brut #1 (of 4)

(W) W. Maxwell Prince (A/CA) Martin Morazzo, Mat Lopes
In Shops: Dec 14, 2022
SRP: $3.99

Presenting here the first major work from the creative minds behind ICE CREAM MAN-re-lettered, remastered, and under its original intended name!
The world of fine art is falling apart, and only ART BRUT knows how to fix it. Alongside the Bureau of Artistic Integrity, Arthur Brut the Mad Dreampainter (and his trusty sidekick, Manny the Mannequin) must dive back into the very paintings that made him insane…or reality itself might just crumble to pieces. A colorful, gonzo romp through art and art history, ART BRUT is equal parts police procedural, hyper-fantasy, and psychological thriller-a veritable Pollock-splatter of comics genres tossed onto one giant pulpy canvas!
Each issue features new covers, new design, and a new Silver Age-style backup story featuring the art hero that no one’s ever heard of-until now!
Originally published under the title The Electric Sublime, this special edition presents the NPR-lauded, critically acclaimed material in its intended form.

Master Hunts Pupil in Magic: The Hidden Planeswalker #4

Posted on by

BOOM! Studios has released the first look at Magic: The Hidden Planeswalker #4, the final issue in the four-issue series from comic and screenwriter Mairghread Scott, artists Fabiana Mascolo and Jacques Salomon, colorist Francesco Segala with Gloria Martinelli, and letterer Ed Dukeshire, about the deadly Liliana Vess and the hidden planeswalker she discovers who will change the fate of the entire multiverse forever, available on July 27, 2022.

In the stunning climax, Isona Maive, the recently released Hidden Planeswalker, plans a reckless mission in the most dangerous corner of the multiverse—hoping to save her home plane, even if it imperils the rest of the multiverse. With Liliana’s pupil at the mercy of Tezzeret’s poisonous and misleading whispers, will Liliana have the strength to be a hero, even if it makes her feel like a villain?

Magic: The Hidden Planeswalker #4 features main and variant cover art by acclaimed artist Karen S. Darboe, Yanick Paquette with Mat Lopes, Ario Anindito, as well as a set of connecting variant cover art by award-winning illustrator Miguel Mercado.
