Now in possession of a mysterious alien device, not only is young Ben Tennyson taking on a variety of strange, otherworldly forms, but the United States army has him on the run! He’s learning more about the Omnitrix – the hard way! Also hot on Ben’s trail is his grandfather, Max, a man with his own set of secrets. Not to mention cousin Gwen, who isn’t about to sit out these adventures either! From Ben 10 co-creator Joe Casey and artist Robert Carey, Dynamite’s new BEN 10 comic book is jam-packed with fun, tension, and over-the-top action!
Two centuries ago, after vanishing for seven years, the starship Event Horizon reappeared near Neptune. Possessed by a demonic entity, the ship murdered most of its rescue crew before it was blown in two. One half fell into a portal to Hell and the other stayed in our solar system.
Today, a billionaire, Daniel Durante, leads a crew of private space marines to the wreckage of the Event Horizon to investigate the ship. Durante is dead set on bringing his brother back from the afterlife and the means to do it lies aboard the Event Horizon! But his crew may have something to say about that…
Christian Ward (Event Horizon: Dark Descent, Batman: City of Madness) and Rob Carey (Aliens: Resistance, Outsiders) continue the most anticipated sci-fi horror comic of the year!
Due to unexpected logistical challenges, the second issue and reprinting of the first for Ben 10will be hitting stores at a different date. The printer experienced a power outage which affected the timeline for getting the books together and moving along to distributors and retailers. Both Ben 10 #1 2nd Printing and Ben 10 #2will now be in stores June 10, rather than the originally solicited June 3. Though the exciting blind bag release for the first issue will still be hitting June 3, packed with the final first prints. Future issues are expected to hit their originally solicited dates for retailers and readers, including #3 in stores July 8. Fans can look forward to the explosive second chapter in the new hit series written by the original creators, the Man of Action team starting with Joe Casey.
Across the first and second printing, the first issue hit an incredible 112,000 copies sold.

Teased previously, Dynamite Entertainment and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products have announced further details on the greatly anticipated new era ofBen 10 in comic book form! For the first time ever in this medium, the four creators of the franchise are stepping up to personally craft new ongoing adventures of their famous phenomenon, starting in February! The Man of Action Entertainment (MOA) crew all got their major career starts in the comics industry, before assembling to co-found one of the most legendary creative collectives in pop culture, focusing on animation, television, film, comics, and beyond. Both separately and jointly, creators Joe Casey, Joe Kelly, Duncan Rouleau, and Steven T. Seagle have been at the forefront of some of the biggest franchises across entertainment like Superman, Spider-Man, and their own original creations like Big Hero 6.
Now things come full circle, with MOA arriving to deliver the saga of Ben 10 in their original medium, with Joe Casey leading the way. This follows Casey’s critically acclaimed forays into other hall of fame animated franchises under Dynamite’s partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery in his Jonny Quest and Space Ghost titles. He’s joined for his first stories here by artist Robert Carey, who has drawn hit titles including Outsiders, James Bond, and Jennifer Blood. Man of Action will creatively drive the stories, with individual partners stepping forward to provide future scripts at different points during the series.
For this inventive new phase of Ben 10, Casey, Carey, and company are taking a more straightforward, action-oriented approach. The beloved animated series exists for fans who grew up with it and for future generations to continue discovering it. This comic series will update the concept for modern audiences, while of course being drawn with the boundless potential of the comics form, opening up a wider range of tones to tap into, from the emotional to the surreal, across drama, comedy, and tragedy.
It all starts in issue #1 with an updated origin, bringing fans both old and new up to speed on the incredible characters and mythos of Ben 10. As young Ben Tennyson first discovers the mysterious Omnitrix — and the transformative powers it contains — readers will be pulled in deeper to how such an event would truly impact the world around it.
From there, the Man of Action brain trust will recontextualize the greatest hits and coolest components of previous iterations, honing it down to its most perfect presentation. They will expand and add to the recipe, with a thoughtful approach to continuity in the vein of classic superhero comics, rewarding both grown up fans of the original shows, as well as younger readers who have never met Ben, his cousin Gwen, Grandpa Max, fearsome foes like Vilgax, all of the powerful aliens of the Omnitrix, and countless other fun parts of the world!
